I stand corrected.
I think I tried Magnum or Colt or Old English or something once upon a time when I was young. I don't recall too much about it. Perhaps that's the point.
I do remember Mickey's. They were a little sweet and used to come in 22 or 32 ounce bottles around here. I I recall going to the mall with my brother and one of his friends and we each killed a bottle in the parking lot and then walked around the mall or something. That's been long many years ago.

M-Tuned brackets (NLA)
Goodwin brackets (NLA)
FM brackets (Available, but couldn't be bothered to actually tell me how much they were)
V8 Roadsters brackets (Soon to be available, they do exist)
Trackspeed brackets (legend, or may be V8R brackets?)
Maruha brackets (You like 300% jdm tax, right?)
They're special because they're more bigger.

I didn't realize they were so special. I got my brackets from somebody somewhere on either 949 or V8 roadsters site. They end up being a very nice balance with the V8R 11.75 dynalite Wilwood up front and pads are easy to find.

PFC 11s for rear showed up. They're cute and tiny. And of course, because i have 1.8 rear calipers, and these were 1.8 caliper fitment, required 30 minutes of work to file down to fit. Yay.

Trackspeed sent me another rotor as a present, after we decided that i had a fluke occurence. This was nice of them, i like Andrew.

And then.... ended up with pretty different pad overhang left/right. Not sure what to do at this point. I don't trust this setup in the slightest anymore. Punting on track day next weekend because i'm just not comfortable with the state of the car.
Driver side with minimal overhang:

Passenger side with pretty different overhang. Easily noticeable at a glance by eyeball. Really frustrated at this point.

Should not be hard to figure out which part is wrong. Start with measuring the rotors to see if there's a large difference, or just swap them side to side and see if the issue follows. If not that, then swap pads side to side and see if the clip holes were misdrilled. It's not likely to be the calipers or brackets.

Yeah outer overhang was same (or close enough to not notice) L/R with first pair of rotors, they had about 0.5mm-1mm, it was inner overhang that was an issue with the first passenger rotor. Now i have outer overhang on new passenger rotor, i will check inner overhang in the next day or two.
