CA FS: Wilwood 14" front/13" rear Big Brake kit

Hi all! I'm having a fire-sale because editors haven't paid me **** this month! I'm selling my bright red Wilwood 14" front brakes, 2-piece slotted rotors, and braided stainless steel brake lines, and the matching 13" rear caliper relocation kit with 2-piece slotted rotors. $925 for both. Fronts are $1700 alone from www.tceperformanceproducts.com and the stock ones come in black. Mine are gloss red, thanks to help from Wilwood. Saves over 8 lbs of unsprung weight per side in the front. Saves a little in the rear due to the lighter aluminum hats, but I don't remember how much right now.

Call me at 760-799-0368, or text me, or send me a message through here. Photos can be provide upon request, though I don't have these off the car yet. I still have my stock brakes I can use, so these will be coming off very soon. Located in SoCal and can probably ship, if I can find my boxes somewhere... Would prefer to sell local though.

Click the link at the bottom to go to the magazine article featuring my car and these brakes! Photos there...

I really hate to give these up... damn editors!

yeah, makes me sick just thinking about it... gotta do what I can to pay bills... income has simply flat-lined for 30 days or more now... sucking hind-tit on my car loan and other bills... I've got to have the money to get out of the hole. There's just no other option.

Well, not if I want to hang on to my Enkei wheels and my Les Paul guitar!

You already have the Greddy... buy the brakes! You know you want to! Ever seen bright red calipers on a white car? Totally awesome!

BTW-no track use on these brakes. I've never had the opportunity to do that yet.

Photo, I love your car, simply beautiful... I've seen it in a couple of magazines now. I'm sorry to hear about the tight finances, but here is a free bump. If I read your add correctly, less than a grand for a full big brake kit? Thats an amazing price, I would jump on it myself, but buying the wife her own RX-8 this week and installing a turbo in mine at the same time.

One note to everyone... Please do not chisel me on the price. I'm not a happy camper while selling these and asking uber-stupid questions like "Hey man, will you take $xxx, including shipping?" Dude, WTF? If you can't pony up this price for a BBK set, you don't really need them, do you?

Grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr rrrr!

Yes, I'm driving around on a set of dark chrome Shinka wheels at this moment. Keeping my Enkeis and Bridgestones in storage in my garage.

guys, please dont' lowball on these things, they're already a KILLER price. I saw these in person recently, very SEXY.

I'd have bought these earlier today had I not upgraded my brake hardware just a few months ago...
