Default Brembo brakes are on

Update: I've got one more set of these brakes that I am selling on ebay - http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eB...47480&rd=1

I installed a set of brembo 4 piston brakes off a GT500 on my car last night. The install was a piece of cake. The only tricky part was bleeding the brakes. There are bleeder valves on both the front and the back of each caliper since there are pistons on both sides. At the last minute I remembered I had a one man bleeder kit hidden away somewhere. Boy was I glad for that. It made bleeding the brakes easy as could be.

The brakes feel pretty good. I haven't really worked them over, but they feel very stable.

Back when I replaced my rims, I really agonized over the decision between the CTR's and the Bullets. Boy am I glad I went with the CTR's.

Here are some pictures of the finished product.
