"I don't know about 19s, you have to remember the s2k brakes look pretty small when you use bigger rims... "

but one way to over come that is to probably spray/ paint them black to blend them in so they dont stick out too much . Your other option is to slap on some huge chromes that will cover up the entire brake disc / calipers !
Ive been trying to buy a set of Spoon brake calipers for the S . Hard to find 2nd hand .

DB, Willfong in the US is selling some Work SR2s like mine for the paltry sum of $USD1500. If I didn't have them already I would snap them up.

Type R's are fast versions of slow cars. The S is not a slow car.
There have been huge discussions about this in the US and the conclusion is you could come out with a more hardcore version of the S but it would sacrifice creature comforts and gain very little.

Aus, I really just want some sexy calipers on a decent looking unit (the car). STI's and 350z's are not that exciting IMHO. But the brakes.......oh the brakes.
perfect for my 3rd gear melb traffic chaos commute!
