Yay or Nae on this Conversion Kit?

Going to be replacing my front drums to discs.
What do you guys think of this conversion kit? -----> http://www.ebay.com/itm/161776060445...%3AMEBIDX%3AIT

Any recommendations?

Personally I would not use slotted/drilled rotors for the street. In any case, if you want the aluminum calipers, fine. Personally I've gotten the $125 mini kit from Right Stuff that included the spindles, caliper brackets, and splash shields. I also got a master cylinder for $50. Your drum brake power booster works fine. Calipers, hoses, rotors, and bearings are all available from any auto parts store or RockAuto. Total cost for that conversion is about half of the price in the ebay ad. Your money, your call on the rotors, calipers, and one-stop convenience.

Right stuff has "the best bang for the buck" kit.

x4 on right stuff... it fits really well. Call them up and let them know exactly what you have and they will get it together for you. Good to work with. Changed mine to 4 wheel disc.
