Slotted rotors would look pretty damn hot on there. The calipers look orange on my monitor, did you have them coated or is my monitor just wrong?

very naice! how did you go about getting it registered and are those evo brembo calipers? I presume they bolt right on being the knuckles should have the same bolt pattern.

its a galant, paperwork was easy..

Brembo conversion required getting the knuckles from a 98+ Galant/legnum Vr4. Hardest part was finding someone reliable to rebuild the calipers and figuring out which color I wanted them to be.
