    Front Caliper Set - Good buy?

    http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eB...3195894&rd=1,1


    Are these ok to replace my aging front calipers? I'd love some performance ones but my budget is a little tight right now and I can always replace them later. $40 for a complete front set just seems like a good deal.

    i would stick with Nissin stuff since they are what we have. also if you want performance do the legend master upgrade. type R calipers and redrilled first gen legend rotors.

    Ditto on sticking with Nissin. Do you know of anyone else that has used these? I've got Nissin in my racecar, trust them with my life at 130mph. I say bolt on tons of aftermaket to go fast cause if the go fast bits fail on the engine, you just go slower. But if your brakes fail... you know the rest.

    I'm assuming they misspelled it and the pads are Ferodo.
