Yes, those are exactly what you will need. Along with Corrado rotors that can be picked up at your local auto parts store.
Components have taken longer than expected to machine and arrive, but kits will be shipping this week.

Our data proves that these brakes last much longer than the M-Tuned big rotor kit. With the big rotor kit and stock caliper, pads would last a day of track use and still have pad life left, but not enough for a full second day. With this BBK, we are getting 4 days out of the same pad compound (Carbotech XP12).
We usually get them between $20 and $25 each from various local stores. Part numbers should be as follows:
NAPA: NB 4886122

dgmorr, I have no reason to believe these WON'T fit an NB, but I listed the kit for 90-97 since that's what we've personally attached it to. I'm 99% sure it would fit your NB - having said that, if you buy a kit and it doesn't fit, I'll gladly give you a full refund and pay to have it shipped back.

Got mine, thanks.
Just to double check, the brackets and calipers are left-right interchangeable, correct?
And, what are the centering rings for? (stock wheels?) They don't seem to be in my box.
EDIT: I found them and they do look like they're for mounting wheels lol.

Yes, you can use them on either side. We will have installation instructions on our website shortly and can let you know when they are up, but it's not too difficult to figure out.

Have you guys thought about making a bracket to adapt T2 rear calipers to front 1.8 rotors? It would retain the parking brake yet have a much larger piston then stock to help keep up with the front end.
Like this setup- it'd be a cheaper more common place rotor, pad, and caliper then you typically see and it looks simple to do.
