Not so much the wilwoods as the BSL's (more pedal). The FSL calipers are
really stiff, and with a 13" dia rotor and a grippy pad, would generate a
bunch more brake torque at a given pedal (less pressure) and thus the rears
would be biting less.

On an ABS car it's a no brainer, on an 89, I'd at least be real cautious
about it. Using a milder pad in the rear, and something grippy in the front
with 96 brakes, good fluid, etc.
