I want the 302mm Rotor Conversion Kit but it's wicked expensive. $600 is too much for I to handle.
Anyone know where I can get one for a reasonable price?
Gracias in advance

DW Volvo sells the caliper brackets for like $35 a piece. All you need is the new brackets, new rotors, and new pads. Save money and get it all from DW Volvo (800) 689-0021

Dang! <_< .......so I should forgo getting the larger rotors? Do they even make that much of a difference?

Well it would be $70 for the brackets, $60 for pads, and $120 for rotors so $250 for the upgrade and if you already need a brake job then think of it as a $70 upgrade, just buy different parts. They make a difference but you probably won't notice it in daily driving.

$900 installed or shipped you will notice a difference .

But depending what wheels you need you might need bigger rims or spacers .....

Yes I am serious .

Why wouldnt I be ?

The kit I have built is now on over 4 Vsers cars as I speak ;)

With another kit going out this week .

Once I get a vendor memebership here in the near future I will have a bunch of other stuff comming out ;)

Why would I sell something that I dont full stand behind or use ?

Unlike other vendors I acutally use anything I would even think of selling to someone else.

So again what have you done ?

Shoot I am doing the first in the world P2 Manual swap.

So again ?
