We were discussing this a few days ago. Maybe someone else remembers. It was $1200 though.

Default Try Supreme Power Parts...

<center><img src="http://www.supremepowerparts.com/brake/brake.JPG"></center><p>Their SPR big brake kit might fit your $$$ limits. You might get it even cheaper if you can get non-slotted rotors. My set is sitting in the garage waiting for me to put them on...<ul><li><a href="http://www.supremepowerparts.com/">Supreme Power Parts</a></li></ul>

Default Move up to BIRA for ~$1200 and get Porsche calipers

Call QRS they have a complete kit for sale, with Porsche calipers and bira brackets.
