Thanks for the reply! One thing I forgot to ask is will the dual piston calipers clear 15x7 wheels? my SR has 15x7s on it <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/frown.gif" alt="" />

I picked up a 1990 V6 Booster, Master cylinder, spacer for the firewall, vacuum supply hose with the internal check valve and the left front brake line (from the master to the frame)for $38 at the local junk jard. They seem to be in good shape! <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />
One more question, will the '90 V6 front rotor dust shields fit with the dual piston calipers, or should I keep looking for the right ones?

If you can get the GenII's get them if not mod the one's you have, you will see what needs to be trim when you put the calipers on there. Also the little hard brake line need to be tweak a little or get the correct ones while finding the backing plates. Oh and get the little hard brake line clips that hold them to the calipers. I posted how to to all this with pictures sometime ago, but the search will only let me go back 200 post.

Should I use the later lower/outer hoses, too?

The listing on the hoses show the later ones are about 1-3/4" shorter than the earlier ones. (7" vs 8-3/4") Do you think they would be better to use, or would the original longer ones work fine?
