    got any idea of which model's rear disc brake discs and calipers can be bolt on to T-18 diff?
    also, would like to know if MA61 front disc brake can be modified to suit sprinter's front, thanks to all 86 experts here again


    Edit: should be MA61 not MA70, no wonder noone is answering my qs

    hey mate i am pretty sure the s13 silvia rear discs and calipers can be bolted on to the rear... i think anyway they are the same stud patern but you may have to modify the handbrake

    R31 works, but if you want to go the toyota route, speak to sam q on toymods he did a nifty little conversion

    I have done a conversion on mine but it cant be copied so easy. I used a Corona disk and a ae-82 corolla caliper, nothing fits on easy onto a T-18 as far as I know. An R31 skyline or sylvia setup might be a good start, watch out for clearences off the lower control arm though with the handbrake. BTW can you use a welder?
