My other car is a 2002 Mustang GT which I am upgrading to Cobra brakes. The oem mustang gt brakes are pretty good and are dual piston calipers and 11 inch rotors. Will these bolt up to my 1990 Eagle Talon TSi AWD? My Talon brakes need new calipers, pads and rotors and my mustang parts have less than 10,000 miles on everything including the calipers. Do you think they would bolt on a 90-91 Eagle Talon TSi AWD?

bump anyone?
 
No they will not bolt up. And the twin piston calipers off of 3000GT NT and late 2G GSXs are calipers that will bolt right on and are superior to the GT brakes. Powerslot rotors (zinc coated), Hawk pads and these calipers (calipers available on Ebay for 40-95 bucks for set or check local listings and/or self serving salvage yards, like we have Pull-A-Part) and it will be gorgeous and cheap setup. Sand down, clean and shoot in some black caliper paint and bake with heat gun. It will be cheap setup, will look awesome, and will be great in stopping performance. Step up will be 3000GT VR4 calipers with custom made brackets. Even your GT brake calipers with custom made brackets will do better than tiny 1 piston 1G thingies, but you will pay more for machining the brackets than it costs to upgrade to suggestion number 1. Next step up is Willwood setup but that's major money and you have a car with 3 bolt rear end very rare ECU so you obviously have better things to spend money on.
P.S. Don't forget to look up "1G diet and weight loss" thread. It's great info and the gain of lost weight is directly proportionate to the performance of whichever brakes you slap on your car.
Cheers.
