Has anyone swapped or thought about swapping their gst/gsx to the brakes off of an evo?
I looked on tirerack and its the same bolt pattern. So what would be the problem of swapping from the shitty GST single piston calipers to the Evo Brembo brakes?

do some research, this topic has been covered thousands of times all over the web.

I'm too lazy to search, I don't have access to DSMtuners. So would care to summarize?

Something about buying galant knuckles that cost like $500 or something along those lines. I think that's a fair summary. If you can come across brakes and brackets cheap, do it; otherwise I believe it'll cost you more than a Baer Big Brake kit.

Ive read alittle bit and here is what I got.
1G owners will have to make brackets and whatnot to make them fit.
2G owners you need the 99+ galant JDM knuckles and some guy got them for $200.

The Baer 13" track kits can be had for under $600 brand new, seems like a better deal after you're done buying and fabbing up stuff.

I second that.
