Otter, can you maybe get some more pics of the brakets? I would like to see if this is something I can cheapen even more, and I work at Ryerson (the strength in metal lolz 
) so material won't be a problem. Maybe even take some measurements for me???

My front pads should be here early next week along with my brake fluid. No idea when my rear pads will arrive. Thus far EBC said another 2 weeks. Everything else I need is here, so I expect to be able to do the swap either next weekend or the week after.

Installed mine today. 
The '99 GSX slotted rotors I got with the calipers worked perfectly. Everything but the braided stainless lines bolted right up. The lines will need to have a different fitting put on the hard line, or else I'll just sell these and buy some new ones. I still have the GSX rear calipers and all four lines I could sell.

What's different about the fittings on the hard line? If you happen to have a size handy that'd be awesome, so I can get the fitting to put on the hardline. If you don't have it then I'll just grab one of my DSM lines and run to the autoparts store and do the trial/error method. I hope there's enough slack in the brake line to allow me to cut the tip of the hardline and install the new fitting and double flare the tube. If not, I'll have to make something like a 1" adapter hardline thingy.

Nice painting on the calipers.
I did not have to rebuild these but for piece of mind and the fact there off the car I opted to do this soooo I dont have to worry about it later on. These calipers are of a 96 eagle talon AWD.
Just wanted to upday on a few parts I picked up after getting my calipers off e-bay a few weeks ago. I went to O'Rielly auto parts and got the rebuild kits for both calipers. Part numbers are as fallows and you can go to any auto parts store and they should be able to cross these. Seal kit is (CK352029) Dont have price right now, will edit with price later on. < this is the seals for the two pistons in the caliper and dust covers. Hardware kit (HDW14113) comes with 2 pins for one side and costs 10.99 a set. Pin boot kit (HDW16080) comes with 4 dust covers and 2 gromets for pins, one gromet per calipre.(one box does both calipers) costs 5.29. Price may very from place to place a little. I did not get new hardware for the pads as I will clean up the old plates that came with these calipers. Those I believe where around 20 dollars and not worht it unless you need them.

And there isn't enough slack to cut the end off and double-flare another fitting on. The hard line comes through a small hole with a grommet, and there's not even 1/2" of slack.
Pics to come later. Maybe I'll try to get one posted while I'm at work.
It auto-closes the sunroof shade rather nicely.
