I think a stripped out GC8 with complete 07 Spec gear will be a very nice track weapon, tell the old man there may be a good deal going on my running gear, and he knows how it goes on the track .
Jesus, you don't sit still do you! Where did you source the gear from??

No idea how much this particular set cost, but i know that for a similar set of Project Mu's, your look at $5k ish. Just a guide.

Porn stoppers though.

Rear brakes have been upgraded to 2 pot subaru, master cylinder is stock, any bias issues I'll sort with pad choice (DS3000 F & 2500's R). Kit is from company in UK called Godspeed, Ian the owner races a GC8 and advised on suitability with keeping rear 2 pots etc, I chose these as they can be taken off and swapped to an other car later with different bell and bracket from Godspeed.

They do a Kit which uses existing 4 pots but widens them and uses a 2 piece 335 disc, I would have gone this way if I was going to keep the GC8, feedback from UK guys is it is as good as Brembo fronts without the cost and hassle of wheel changes.

The AP Racing Kit you have is Pure PORN.

I would love to have 6 pots on my front.

Will you have to change your wheels to fit the calipers?
