I have been working with Daryl. I contacted them because I wanted a big brake kit that would work with OEM 99 wheels. The large offset precludes most brake kits. If you use spacers or different wheels you are more than likely good to go.

I do not know how well they work. My car is on jack stands, its favorite place in the world. I put in poly motor mounts, aluminium drive shaft, brake kit and fender braces and oh yea mazdaspeed springs.....Ramy where are my springs???????????????

The kit came with steel braided lines....I choose not to use and custom spacers and brackets. It was always assumed that we might have to send parts back and forth to get it right but as it has turned out not the case here

I have nothing but good things to say about Daryl. He has been the man. Easy to work with and always gets back to me

Questions....Comments....rocks.....

Okay a little technical here. The pads MUST be within <1 mm of being centered on the rotor. Please note that I could have shaved the spacers supplied with my lath but choose not to...lazy. I would always suggest that anyone putting on a aftermarket brake kit do a fit check to make sure of this. I had to make 4 shims to achieve this on the kit. I choose to mod the OEM braket and hard line to the steal brake lines. I liked the fact that they are supported midway on the schock. I used an after market set of lines not what was provided in the kit.
