wow, thats a good deal. I would do that, but finding a wrecked SN95 by where i live is like finding a million bucks. I supose I'll have to drive up to denver or something...
why cant money be free?

I haven't seen jack down here, man. There has been exactly one SN95 at the JY I go to (Colorado Auto Parts, in Englewood) for a year or more, and it was a V6 auto. :rolleyes: Check out www.coloradostangs.com, we've got a for sale section that usually has some goodies. :)

I bought my whole front used off the classifieds on www.corral.net. I bought the Calipers for $150/pr, the spindles for $100/pr and got a set of rotors with 10,000 miles used for $30.

I got my rear disk setup for $100 off the classifieds here, and got my MC and booster off Ebay for $30 combined. Then the rest was misc things like brake lines and fittings and the 3-2 conversion.

I also did mine on a college budget. It took me 6 months to track down good deals on all the parts. Mainly in between classes i would go on ebay or in the classifieds and look til i found a good deal

When i got my calipers, they looked like this

But i didn't feel like taking the wheel off every carwash to repolish, plus i wanted something flashy so i did this

SOme like it, some don't. I don't care I like it and the car stops on a dime
 
I like my pony's and 10holes with slicks, i dont wanna go 5 lug get 17" rims to have good braking, what can I do to improve my braking as it is? possibly bigger front disc and rear disc setup? I also like my 31-spline 4lug moser axles :nice:

Plenty of rear disc conversions out there. That will help you whoa your pony a lil quicker
