What did you do to your Sedan today?
GD, that's a lot. I have a similar setup and spent maybe a little over a grand, and that's with my numerous failures included. Mandrel bends are the way to go, but I can't find any in my area. I went crush bent and have no problems so far. If you have HFC's, it may rasp a bit though. I did spray the exhaust with some black paint/rust preventative to hide the ugliness.
You ever get your exhaust situation sorted out? I remember you were having problems with it being too boomy.

You've really got me thinking about this...
1. buying a set of reman calipers
2. having them painted
3. swapping them in
4. selling my originals.
This might be the path of least resistance to getting calipers painted, given my situation. I can't get the car up on four jackstands in my garage, it just isn't feasible, and I have feet of clay.
Love that amber/orange, although I'd be wanting a more metallic flake look to the paint, and the INFINITI decals. Either way, well done, Supra.

When I ordered they had a coupon for $25 off too. The cheapest place I saw them was on ebay, seller was brakemotive. I think they were $220-230 shipped, but they were out of stock last I checked. I did direct message them and they said they would be getting more.

$286 shipped for a full set, rebuilt? Just add pads. That right?

I’m so confused. Are these akebono or power stop? I just bought a used set of akebono’s from a 370z for $550 and they still need to be powder coated. I’ll be kicking myself if I could have had them already powdercoated for $300!

For those who are interested in the remans, Brakemotive has them in stock again at the cheapest price.

. I might order another set in a couple weeks when I get my tax returns lol. I'm guessing they ship from the same location as Jegs, both are located in IL.
