    Come to think of it, assuming the stock bits are Mitsu pieces, the big brake kits may not work. The lines most likely won't work. The mounting adapter probably won't either since the two vehicles have different mounting locations (offset from mounting surface) in relation to their rotors. But, it'd be easy to CNC new adapters based on the ones included in the kit).

    I would strongly recommend that you use a larger rotor though. With the 4 piston caliper + stock rotor combo, you won't see much increase in brake performance... you might even decrease it. Larger pad means more friction and heat. The stock rotor might not be up to the task and warp.
