Depending upon cash flow I can't stress enough that this'll prolly take some time to get together so it can't hurt (if you have steady income) to sign up. Hell, I'm in debt up to my eyeballs, but most of it'll be paid off by the time this happens...IF it happens. At the rate we're going I doubt it will.

On a side note (and I don't want this to become the topic of discussion) I seem to remember a LOT of complaining and requests for a big brake upgrade. Now that it's here, where is everybody?

Unless the GB goes through and they make the 10, there will be no kit. You'll have to go custom.

Question

Maybe I am not understanding this thoroughly. The people who order the kit in this offer will certainly get a kit but if we don't have 10 kits sold no more kits except for the lucky ones who were able to order as of now - whenever this deal ends
--or--
no 10 kits, no kits at all???

RPW's rear disc conversion is special order only and on their website. Try e-mailing them and then contacting Vision Imports.

And please keep on topic. Especially in vendor threads people have a tendencey to take things off the subject of interest and technical questions related to the product being sold.

Why is wilwood being so tight with making a kit for our lancer? All they really have to do is change the mounting hats and caliper brackets from a civic kit and then we have a wilwood big brake kit. Correct me if I am wrong, if I am wrong. At least this is the case for the OZ but for an ES all they would have to do is the caliper mounting bracket(since civics and lancer ES's share the 4x100 bolt pattern).

Maybe due to the overwhelming lack of interest when it actually comes to paying for the kit? Why make a kit if they're not gonna make money? Custom Wilwood, Brembo, AEM, Baer or whoever will always be an option, but I don't think there's more than a few people who appreciate how comparatively inexpensive this BBU is.

Well it's a good deal, but seems that I am going to have to go custom since the money I already have is going to get my OZ Superleggeras
