I have the EBC Dimpled Rotors, EBC Green HDs Pads, and SS Lines. New booster and Master Cylinder.... Something stil aint right cause it wont lock'em down..
Have decided to go Hydroboost, Hopefully that will fix them up with a good flush and SS lines on the rear with new pads, rotors, Shoes.

You might want to try the 05+ calipers.
less than $100 fron a junk yard.
I have no idea if they bolt right up though.
They grab hard.
