Adelaide - group buy for Evo Brembo brake conversion kit I am organising a group buy here in adelaide

Possibly relevant for Skyline drivers but this is for a track Silvia. I often see Evo Brembo's much cheaper than GT-R Brembos but the Evo units, despite being a better caliper with larger pad area, require an adapter regardless of whether you use 320mm or 350mm Evo Rotors. Such as this: http://www.tf-works.com/tf-evo-8-9-brembo-brake-caliper-adapter-for-nissan-s13-s14-s15/ (This is for 320mm rotors) My concern is how the adapter will handle the heat from longer stints and the risk of pad knock back etc from flex in the mount. Car is getting a new motor and will end up on either big semis or slicks so will be moving along a bit. Not an issue to be worried about and time to enjoy some Evo calipers or better to stick with the direct fit R33 GT-R Brembo's for a bit more money, less pad area, but maybe less issues?
