You're going to love this kit. I think the ST-60 caliper kit would've fit a lot nicer than the ST-40 but torque output between the two is pretty similar so bias shouldn't be compromised. Did you get a 4 wheel kit or just up front?

Awesome. The 4 wheel kits are the best way to go. Modulation is going to be sick, balance is uncomparable to most kits out there and pad selection is ridiculous. Enjoy!

OK... unfortunately my car is not done yet:(. Needs spacers up front, however, I had to stop by the shop and take a look. So here is the single pic I snapped of the new brakes. http://i626.photobucket.com/albums/tt342/SCTrojanMaggie/IMG_0889.jpg
