Someone who has completed the big brake swap onto their 1G, do you have any tips or suggestions? I'm potentially purchasing joem's set and from reading the Vfaq, the procedure looks to be fairly simple.

Thanks!

Its easy just like replacing pads and rotors, but you have to bleed the brakes.
Complete time to finsh 1 hour. straight bolt on no modafication needed. Must have at least 16" rims.

Correct me if I'm wrong, but since I'm running the stock rims and tires my rims are 16x6.5 and my tires are 205/55/16 (I'd look but my car is 2.5 hours away back home). My car is a '92 Laser RS AWD also. With the stock rim and tire dimensions, I'm not seeing anything showing that I may have fitment (sp?) issues?

Thanks!

The AWD big-brakes will fit any DSM with the stock 16" wheels.
