Default upgraded calipers

Hi
I'm planning to upgrade the base model brake calipers to the Red Calipers from the R. Wondering if it will have any effect on DSC or ABS?

Agreed.
I upgraded the rear 325 mm brakes (same as those on the base model) to 376 mm (same as R) with zero problems.
I already had the 380 mm front brakes so I didn't touch those other than to fit new pads.
But it's more than just the calipers you will also need to change out the caliper brackets, the rotors, the pads and the rear splash shields.
And remember the base model stock 18" wheels will not fit over the 380 mm front calipers.
