The brakes look great, but what's with the off roader look? :confused: What caused it to come up that high?

Jeff, whose brake kit did you use F&R? Master?
Reason for the height, no engine, no tranny, no driveline and no gas in the tank.

Doesn't look like it would be fun pushing it in and out of the garage to wash it. :nonod:

Re: Big Brakes part 3 (Jeffvette)
Nice setup, and good to see it fitting under commonly available 17" wheels. Any change in offset with this setup?
Any link on the web where these parts can be sourced?
Are these the Porsche Twin Turbo Calipers?

You can get them from Exotic Muscle. They are the brakes that came on the Porsche TT (Big reds) but you can get them from Brembo

No change in offset, they fit like a glove.
