    Rona struts + Pug discs + hilux calipers apparently bolt together.

    Head that you are supposed to mill the discs to fit under the lux calipers. I wouldnt know tho as i havent done it

    IM goin ra60 discs+cailpers modded to fit stock hubs. One of the reason i didnt just get the entire strut setup of the sleeka is because of the weight. While many people say it wont be much, i have to do everything my self and had a hard time lifting my shitty stockos!

    What size rims would you need to use the rx7 calipers and rotors?

    $350 Calipers, $320 pair of new RDA Slotted Disc, $150 new pads, = $820 sounds reasonable?

    I've heard that you can use ae92 calipers. Is that true? And is it worthwhile, cos I imagine it would be much cheaper than the jdm setup

    Cheers for that DavisJD. Some handy links in there...

    What about the Revolver EG6 conversion? There's a kit on at the moment.



    Interesting. Anyone know more about this....where'd you hear about it Course Out?

    This is interesting....from Club 4ag.

    The JDM option is sounding better and better and like Dave (Truenosedan) said before in most cases (mine included) we're talking about an NA 4ag which may not warrant bigger brakes.

    I'm just looking to do some sprint meets in the future so really I'm not after that much more power, it's mainly the fade that i'm trying to reduce. Especially here at Mallala where it's "like a fight in a carpark" as one of my mates puts it...

    Anyone got any experience with the JDM brakes as far as track work is concerned...?
