they *should* come with the brackets, call the people and ask to be sure. UNless my brain has gone to happy hour already, those pics show the brackets attached.
FYI, a loaded caliper comes with the pads already, hence the term "loaded".

the shims will come with the pads/calipers. The brackets should be included as well. Then all you need is rotors and potentially the ss lines.
As far as rotors, you have many options so shop around. I personally got slotted brembos from Raceconcepts.net when i did my conversion. They had a 2gnt discount then, i dont know if it still applies--contact them to check.
Whatever rotors you end up ordering make sure you order the rotors for the AWD model. Oh and dont waste your money on that cross-drilled and slotted bullshit. Just get the slotted or plain rotors.
SS lines can be found all over the net, search around and im sure you'll find a good deal. I dont even know if howell carries them, i personally do not give howell any of my money. Again i got mine from Raceconcept.net but i know thats not the only place that would have them.
enjoy the DPC's. My stockers definitely started sucking when i put onthe 17's i had but the DPCs were suweet.
*edit* you're going to need brake fluid as well. Im sure you knew that but just in case...

EXECELLENT! well brembo blanks are only like 30 apiece, but i would like something fancier, slotted would be nice if the were max 60 a piece, but ill look into it. now that howell is in kind of a bad standing with us, since the ECU theft issue and such, i dk wer ill get my AF/X UDP, i cant find any other place that sells them. i wanted to get everything from one place so that i would combine shipping. if any one in browses in here and knows where feel free to post it or pm me, thanks again everyone for being so helpful.
P.S. hope u guys like my new sig pic, just had to brag ^^
EDIT: u mention to make sure to get AWD rotors, when ever im browsing for rotors ill just put they are for a GSX, will that be the same thing? cuz im just going to buy new drums for the back after i get the GSX fronts.
