where'd you get the brake calipers and brackets for 100? that's a great price on those. they usually run about 100 for just the caliper.

TRY THE 3000GT FORUMS, THE NON-VR4 3000GT/STEALTHS USE THE SAME CALIPERS, THE ONLY DIFF. ARE THE BRAKE LINE FITTINGS. INSTEAD OF A BANJO BOLT, THEY USE A 10MM THREADED LINE DIRECTLY INTO THE CALIPER. YOU CAN BUY A COUPLE OF BRASS WASHERS AND PUT THEM ON THE STOCK BANJO FOR ADDED CLEARANCE AND THEN THE STOCK BANJO FITTINGS WILL WORK JUST FINE.

Will GSX brakes fit with the stock GS rims?

Yss, so long as the stock rims are 16". They will not work with the 14" rims. Remember, before 1997, stock GSX's came with 16" rims.
