That first statement is 100% true.

But I doubt The kit I'm trying to put together will be 1k.

What I can also do Like I previously mention (I think I have)

Is,
I can make another kit that includes
bigger oem brackets to enable a larger rotor to fit,
without having to replace the oem calipers.

I know our calipers are one piston.. which sucks compared to the 2-4-6 pistons. but they will perform better.

I can put together a kit like this for both front and rear
using one piece rotors for around 1200.
or using two piece rotors for 2ishh.

Keeping the whole brake system stock,
only giving the calipers steroids to fit larger diameter rotors.
Which probably be the same thickness.

It wont be on of those "Extended Brackets"
that push the original caliper bracket upwards and makes the brake pad retarded. creating a problem where the pad doesn't contact the rotor correctly.
