Default Big Brake kit for the rear preview with Pics!

Here is a preview of what I am working on for a rear big brake upgrade. I am using SLK55 330mm rotors with S/CL65 rear calipers. To make it work I had to buy a rear hub from a junk Crossfire and then have my machinist make a custom bracket to adapt the caliper to the hub assembly.

What are you doing for your E-brake?

The E brake is the same on the Crossfire and SLK55 rotor. Works perfect.
