check out http://www.sn95brakes.com/ good site about brake swaps using SN95 brakes.

I installed brembo 4 piston calipers with 13" rotors, and have 1999 cobra rears on order....

Is that the 2000 Cobra R kit? It looks like a nice kit

I do not think that I will change some people are saying that it messes with the geomerty of the car...

By changing the spindels what would I be gaining?

With 94-up spindles, you are able to bolt on any off-the-shelf upgrade for an SN95 car. 94-95 spindles will improve your original geometry, and keep the stock track width. 96-up spindles will increase the track width 8 mm per side.

Yes, it's the "R" kit. It's a very nice kit, I got mine from Dasilvia racing, who got it from STEEDA, who got it from brembo. It's the brembo Grand Turismo kit (comes in the brembo boxes) ...it even came with an extra set of pads -a nice bonus! I didn't do any "before and after" testing, but it "feels" like it stops much "more good-er" . I have a G-Tech pro, but didn't use it because it's not a fair test, with the stock brakes I was running 16x7" "pony" wheels, and with the R-kit im running 17x9" 2000 cobra R's. The 2" wider wheel will help slow it down just from the extra traction.
