Hello...nice to meet you... is there no other LvC members in our area..? It would be great to have friends that have the same passion we do...lol

yes....I ordered a complete drop out... he said after they dropped it out complete...he would remove the engine and trans and ship... on the rear I only asked for the control arms,struts,spindles,sway bar,end links,calipers,rotors, and lines... I even asked for all the bolts...lol never know...

I'm located in Grant, Alabama it's kinda in the middle of scottsboro. ..guntersville. .and huntsville

update...I am still waiting on AJ from the salvage yard to get the str parts shipped...shipping was quoted at only $250 freight to a business

Guys... I could build this bumper for anyone who is interested. ..I could graft a g8 lower onto an ls upper add some stainless mesh...As well as do the headlight mods..and build the painted with mesh grilles... or... basically any other bumper combination... I can put a price together with just...

its a 2004 s type R with blown engine and only 60k miles

str complete set up Ok...just to let you guys know... I called and ordered a complete STR suspension drop out this morning from a salvage yard in VA.. $1200 ...the car is still complete. ..so it will take a few days for them to get it all removed,on a pallet, and shipped...not sure yet how much...

Bone stock brakes..yes If I can find a set of those I'll put them on as an upgrade for the time being... but I feel challenged to do a 4 piston set now...it's my goal...and I miss match brake components all the time on my builds for work... and all my older vehicles. ..I'm sure I can come up...

they do look amazing...his whole car looks awesome...but is it over kill..?.. I live in the mountains...and with the new wheels, I have noticed some brake fading with the stockers...the more the better... and the 4 pot looks even better.....right?

Yeah... I've read all these brake threads...over and over... but.. I'm not satisfied with the ending of this story... I'll figure something out... 14"+ and 4 pistons...

are those the 06-09 "R" models..?

I'll come up with something to actually add to this thread... I have several options at my disposal. .. I'll stop high jacking now...sorry for that...but thanks a lot for the insight

yea, lol I have some in my watch list. But I was looking on car-parts.com and think if I make a few calls should be able to find a better deal... I bought a set off there from an 08 srt8 last year with d&s rotors and stainless lines for $450.. If I can find a yard with both yrs of r types in...

Dang...that's ok... I just recently got my car back on the road..and upgraded to 20's... I'll get one on order... I want to see what issues you encountered... since the rears will fit... I might just go ahead with a set...worst case scenario I'll have some really cool paper weights...right..?

can you update what all exactly is left for sale... I could make use of the seats

Thanks for the details... the concept sees like a no brainer... we (my work) fab c5 and c6 spindles to fit custom classic car frames... I thought for sure the stock ls spindle could be modified to accept the r type brembos. ..do you still have the stuck caliper laying around. .? I don't mean to...

That's kinda what I was thinking.If the hat depth is reduced with the later model rotors will that allow enough room for the caliper to be adapted.? I should find specs of the depth...offset of various rotors which seems simple enough. But alex7 seems to be the only ls owner with a stock r type...

Hey guys...been reading the forums here for quite a while now...finally decided I should join and give props and thanks to every one for your help to this point... I hope to meet you all soon

Just for clarification I know I'm late to jump in on this topic...but please explain exactly why the factory s type r brembos won't work..? I have never met a challenge I couldn't resolve. .. if you would...please give more details for the swap being a failure
