Evo Brembos, Galant knuckles or the adapters, & Evo rotors & pads.
And as previously stated, atleast Evo offset wheels. I'm running 17x9 +35s to fit Brembos.
I've also seen the 3G brake master cyclinder suggested, but not mandatory.
This is something most don't consider, you will needs evo wheels or other wheels with plenty of offset.Bracket and the entire evo brake system. Plus maybe wheels if your offset isn't big enough to fit the calipers on without hitting
LovingBoost sells them on this site.Do you know where i can buy the adapters? I'm more then likely gonna do the setup.

your looking at around $1,400- $2,000 for this upgrade, when its all said and done with EVERYTHING completed. Not including JDM knuckles.
yup! unless you plan to keep this car forever its not worth it.Better off buying an evo....
You can run the rear brake lines as is. Don't need banjos.You will need new rear brake lines as oem is screw in and brembos are banjo. Everyone forgets to mention this part!
EXACTLY!!You can run the rear brake lines as is. Don't need banjos.
If your going to be a cheap ass then quite possibly but were talking upgrading calipers so new lines are really a must. Even if you have ss lines originally from the stock caliper system just change them.You can run the rear brake lines as is. Don't need banjos.
You do realize DSMs are the definition of being a cheap ass right? He could buy a direct Brembo kit for $3k if he wasn't concerned about money or 4 piston upgrade from Wilwood for about $1000 or even the Stoptech kit for $2k. But really, you're trading less money for more DIY and headaches by trying to adapt the Evo Brembos.If your going to be a cheap ass then quite possibly but were talking upgrading calipers so new lines are really a must.

There is so little line thats its not worth bending it etc to make it fit and is this another classic example of half assing the job! Lets not give him bad ideas guys and do things correctly shall we. You can half ass your own cars but not on his. its an important part of a car after all and its only $40 for rear lines.
No bodge jobs!!! Do it right first time!
I didnt mean cheap as in price bargain cheap but cheap as is will not change stuff to save a few bucks cheap haha, The most part are cheap yes but when you do certain upgrades somethings should not be by passed. This is safety after all.You do realize DSMs are the definition of being a cheap ass right?

But putting that aside, my comment was more directed as being that he can buy SS lines for a 2g instead of having to custom make separate lines for the rear and not that he can reuse his stock brake lines. I do agree that if he does upgrade the calipers the lines should be upgraded as well.
Are there bends? Yes of course, just like the front has to bend around the knuckle and will continue to bend as the steering turns lock to lock. At least with the rear all it sees is up and down motion. But I'll let the OP decide what he wants to do with his car.
Is there a link to JNZ's set? I'm not seeing it on their website.I didnt mean cheap as in price bargain cheap but cheap as is will not change stuff to save a few bucks cheap haha, The most part are cheap yes but when you do certain upgrades somethings should not be by passed.

Its not an expensive option to get rear lines differently. Heck jnz sell a custom set for 79$ so thats pretty cheap. I even use this set. I do understand and see your point they could be used but they are designed for banjo so just use banjo.
Im sure Op will decide on his route to take. I just feel this kind of information should not be mentioned to provoke them to save a few $ and only the correct info should be posted. hope you can see my point B-)
