I think I'm going to have to do up a guide for this!
I run AE82 twincam front suspension with AE92 GZE front brakes, and AE92 Rear hub knuckles and brakes in an AE82 sedan.
For the front:
Yes, its all good. Use the disk and caliper only! You will need to cut off the AE82 stone guard as the disk is larger, and slightly slot the holes in the hub knuckle to get the brake pads to sit right on the disk. Both easy to do.
The strut tops should be interchangeable, but you will have problems unless you use both the AE92 hub kbucles and struts (in that case, of course, the brakes are even easier to fit, just undo the ball joint on the control arm)
For the rear:
This is the tricky bit. You can use the complete AE92 rears with the AE82 strut tops, but you will have to modify the rear lower control arm as the AE82 one wont fit on the AE92 hub, and the AE92 arm is too long for the AE82 chassis.
If you want pics of the conversion, let me know.
Craig.
