Why not just get the entire suspension and call it a day? It all bolts right up.

Wtf where did you find a teg in a breakers?!

Ive never found one yet :cry:

If its definetaly a 98 then yes they're the ones you want, the 96 spec ones have smaller brakes

You are aware you'll need more than just the calipers to fit them..?

he needs new wheels, ITR is 5 lug.

Depending on the wheels he has now and the price point it may be worth it. If he's planning on boosting then why not get the whole suspension with both sway bars, put on a full ES poly kit and bolt it all up with some new rotors and pads. That will handle the boost later on.

true, but you can do the same with 4lug without having to buy the 5 lug conversion.

only thing you need to buy is swaybars......

but topic is about brakes, not suspension

You need the hubs from an eg6 or an eg5 with ABS to fit the bigger calipers
