Default Another LS 400 Brake Conversion Completed

Hey guys, these are pictures of the LS400 brake conversion completed within just a few hours of this post. Here are some pictures, they look great and most of all the performance is up to my standards of braking. I have already tested them on the highway and they are very responsive whether you are just crusing at 35mph or on the highway at 80mph. They are a direct bolt on the only tools needed are, LS400 rotors, bleed the brakes, get a set of rims that can clear the brake calipers and your good to go.
The brake setup can be purchased From Aliga, on Club Lexus.
I will have more day time pictures tomorrow. In the mean time here is what they look like at night. If anyone has questions feel free to ask.

I recently purchased this car in April, This has just been the beginning of the upgrades in performance. I dunno if the ss brake lines will make a difference, I'll definitely look into it, but i think if i drove a car with ss brake lines and noticed a significant amount of improvement, then i would seriously consider it.

He didn't ask what wheels were on the car. He asked if they will clear stock sc300 16 wheels.
