black label racing big brake kit

so i had seen these quite some time ago when they were added to the jhp web site but never thought anything of them. but after researching and shopping around they dont seem like such a bad choice. heres the link.
Black Label 6-Pot Caliper & 11" (4x100) Rotor Brake Kit (black) - JHPUSA.COM Serving JDM Since 1999
i was just speaking with some one from jhp and was told that the 4x100 11'' big brake kit would be a direct bolt on for our littles fitties!
im thinking about ordering them in a month or two when my tax return comes in

Damn those look pretty sweet. I dont know all that much about brakes. Does 6 pot mean 6 piston?

it is mini 6 piston. which IMO is totally awesome. i dont know to much about the kit but i do know that with a spacer ( which is provided ) this will fit 16'' wheels.

Those are some pictures of it on my car. JHP can get replacement pads and rotors. I currently have the kit off my car for winter time.

It's pretty much a bolt on procedure. Only hard part is changing to the extened lug studs. Definelty a two person job.
