[s-cars] could dodge viper 4 piston front calipers be mountable toour cars

[Dave Forgie]

Sorry. I was away today (Thurs) and just saw this email.  Hey, I don't want
to throw money away. Trust me, my car has already eaten more than its fair
share.  This question was not mine (I already have BIRA Sys 1 (brackets 003
and 004) for years).  The real question was whether the Viper calipers were
really Brembo or just clones of some type.  After that I don't care.
