Message	$1200-$1300 is a -great- price for a 993tt big brake kit. They usually run $1800-$2000, and the Mov'it kits are >$2k. I bet Chip's cost on the parts for the kit are almost $1k alone... Shit, next you'll be wanting a 996 GT3 big brake kit with carbon rotors for <$2k :/ Just out of curiosity, did the guy with the E36 say how/why the 993 brakes were better, and was it an M3 or regular 3-series? The E36 M3 does 60-0 in 110ft, and has good resistance to fade. I can't imagine the Porsche brakes helping that much in an auto-x... maybe for road racing due to better fade resistance, but not auto-x... ///jrb
