    Coilovers using corona struts with 10kg JIC springs (looking for 9kilo ones if anyone wants to swap.)
    Corona brakes up front.

    nice 86 man, looks like it slides well.

    you mentioned you wanted to do a brake upgrade... you already have the perfect struts for it ...

    the hilux upgrade is the way to go for you .

    hit up a wreckers and look for the even piston hilux calipers, they are also found on 75& 80 series land cruisers. then buy some Peugeot 604 vented rotors and have them machined down in dynamiter from a 272mm to a 266mm then drill out the holes that bolt it to the hub my 1.5mm and they bolt straight on. it is a mad upgrade and should only set you back about $350 but it is well worth it.
