To anyone who thinks they want Wilwoods, you don't. The 6-pot setups might have improved a bit, but their 4-pot setups are designed for easy installation and bracket fabrication on hot rods, not performance. The feel like ****, they barely work, and you've got to run super-aggressive pads (that destroy rotors)to get t e same bite you would with a stock pad on 2-pots, let alone an FHI setup or something better like Stoptechs.
I ran them, this isn't just a hearsay rant. The wagon has Stoptechs for a reason; they're one of the best setups out there before price is taken into consideration, and are pretty much a no brainer with price as a factor. Plus, they actually are designed (the 328's) to work with your stock MC and stock brake bias; none of this having to upgrade other stuff to keep your car working correctly.

****.
My grandpa died last night.
He was 93 & survived the ****'s occupation of Austria.
He refered to women as "mere women" and was the most un PC gentleman you'd ever meet.
Saw him on Monday in San Francisco.
Had a beer or three with him at the hospital.
****.

this is not what I want to see when I first get in...
Sorry, my post was referencing the previous posts, not your's, Paul. My condolences. My buddies un-pc grandpa just passed as well. He was 102 and spent the last 5+ years getting kicked out of virtually every local rest home because he was such an ornery bastard.

I'm so sorry about your loss Paul. He does seem like a man's man and calls them as he sees em. I hope everything will be alright for you and your family. Take care Mr. Oaf.
