I guess I'll be the guinea pig! I exchanged quite a few emails with EliseParts and decided that their kit was for me. I'm sure all the aftermarket kits are sufficient in strength, but the options from the vendors in the USA were just not quite exactly what I wanted. I really prefer having a double shear bracket on the inner joint (Carroll Smith's racing books really influenced me here), new outer joints, and dust shields for the rod ends. I'll document the purchase experience and install of the kit in a separate thread.
If/when you do start a new thread would you please link it here so those of us following along can find it? Very interested in this and would hate to miss that thread.
Also Tribe, and if you said this already my apologies, but how do you use your car? Street or track? What is your goal with this setup, weight saving only or better/longer braking too? Finally what type of fluid do you run now - or plan to run with this setup?
I'll admit I'm in the same camp as Frank - in that my setup works pretty damn well with the stock calipers, Phil's vented SS pistons, Ti backing shims, Pagid RS14 (blacks) and SRF600 fluid. I never get fade and the car stops on a dime - that said after adding the power I can definitely tell that the car is now under-braked which isn't a good thing is it? As funds become available this is definitely on the list....
