ae86 struts and brakes are easiest and bolt in. you can either use ADM or JDM brakes on them. or ADM calipers with larger JDM vented disc.

or XT130 struts and brakes. Then you can do the hilux/pug upgrade.

cheers will i need to use a different master or any thing with the 86 brakes. n do i need a rear brake conversion as well or just front

[squish_m8]

You can use the same master with the 86 stuff.

You probably will not need to upgrade the rears but the cheapest is rt142 live axle disc brake setup which should bolt on. or you can upgrade to a JDM disc brake rear end and get the t-series as well. This costs alot more though.

what does the rt142 bolt up to???
do they still bolt up from drums

yeah is there any mods u have to do for the rt142 upgrade or does it just bolt staight up

if you have a t series drum diff then the disk brake setup will bolt straight on.
only modification you will have to do is moving the shocker mount over so that the shocker doesnt foul the caliper. you will have to chop and re-weld the shocker mount.
