I made a set that uses the ssbc setup with the vented 10.25x0.75 rear rotor from a 88 Fiero after getting sick of not being about to get an alignment in Maine because I couldnt fit the stock wheels over the ssbc rear. With the steel I used though the brackets cost $200 lol

It's everything from their 12" rear kit except the rotors & brackets. Basically it's the bracket I posted above, 1988 Fiero rear rotors, T-bird/Mustang/Linc caliper, & Fbody front lines with a small solid line from the fbody line to the jbody axle connection. The SSBC ebrake setup never worked for me, & I've yet to see if the stock cables would be long enough to use now since I dont think I have any cables around. Also like still using the caliper I had with the ssbc setup since EBC pads are like $30-35 shipped for them.

Although I forgot to mention also that 88 Fiero rotors are not the easist thing to come by & it's probably not an ideal setup if you intend to keep your car for a long time & for the same or less cash the Neon setup would be a better long term solution as the Fiero rotors are just going to get harder to find over the years. I only used them since they bolt right up & I didnt want to get rid of the calipers I already had on the car. Also, with the core charge the loaded calipers are well over $100 each if you get them new/rebuild from a parts store & unloaded they wouldnt have the mounting bracket youd need.
