That's A LOT for a bbk......I would spend 1/2 and buy the Supra TT kit and have just or close to just as much stopping power!

I think you can find front 13" stoptechs for about $1800.. Way cheaper than Bembos., I don't know what Endles run.
But you can get the same stopping power for alot les in the Supra's TT brakes but you get the added weight. If I remembercirrectly, I think they are about 5-6lbs more each wheel.
