Btw fuzion, do we need anything else for the kits? I heard somewhere that changing to these brakes requires a new front sway bar? Is that so?

No..

this isnt a kit, mines actual EL GT original parts (spindles etc ..)

For the kits no different sway bar or anything will be used.. same parts minus caliper and bracket for caliper, but all are legal and engineered.

PBR dont look as cool. They basically look the same as the std brakes, but are a bit longer and have an extra 'tab' in the middle (as in say in between the two pistons on the tickford). The tickford ones look heaps better on the car.

Btw....fuzion, what tools did you need? Reason I ask is my old man is a builder and has every tool under the sun, but is going to probably be out of town when I do the brakes...so I need a reasonable idea of what I'm going to need so I can pilfer them from him before he goes away. :wink:
