when putting these on the SC do i need to change brake lines as well?
i have SS and x drilled so i want to know if i need to change.
Just make sure you get LS400 caliper bolts as the one for the SCs are too long. Dont go with the washer method. Spend the extra $6 and do it right. Washers will end up costing you money anyways.
Bleed your brakes. My car felt 'okay' when I went for a test drive, but I bleed the brakes again for the 2nd time and boy did it make a difference in pedal feel and travel. There were still air coming out of the bleeder bolt. I'm going to bleed it again next week. After driving the car for awhile, the air inside the caliper (if any) will get hot and rise up to the bleeder bolt.

I'm planning on going with the LS400 brakes soon, and from my research I've found you need the LS calipers, LS rotors, LS caliper bolts, brakes pads, brake fluid, and you would have to modify the dust shield by bending or removing it.
Has anyone put the LS brakes behind the 97+ 5 spoke sc wheels?
I'm ready to pull the trigger ASAP on this project myself, especially after reading a multi-page thread over on SF about its benefits. My main problem right now is finding a source for the LS calipers, bolts and pads. I've identified a known source for stainless steel brake lines, and another for high performance LS rotors.
i didnt have to bleed mine...
