Front and Rear upgrades

Ive accumulated a couple of ideas over time, but they may not work. and hence may need confirming.
Rear, What about the Mitsubishi Scorpion differential conversion? Apparently its the exact same width and stud pattern as the Sprinter diff and comes with decent discs and calipers, but the brackets need to swapped over. Theres also supposed to be an LSD centre available with a few different ratios.
Front (two options), (1) Atleast 5 different people have told me that the S13 Silvia uses the exact same stud pattern and offset as the Sprinter. If this is the case then maybe the front vented discs could be viable option. Again, confirmation?
(2) Apparently the vented discs from one of the later Magnas use the exact same bolt pattern to attach the disc to the hub. The hub diameter needs to be machined down a bit to fit inside the disc but looks like no real hassle. then just some new caliper mounts need making. It also increases the front track by approx 10-20mm
Now believe me, I am not really sure about any of these.
Personally for the front discs, I was simply thinking of searching through the DBA catalogue for a disc which uses the same approximate dimensions (except for diameter and thickness) as the Sprinter (have a look at the catalogue, you'll see what I mean). Buy a vented and slotted pair as blanks, get them drilled by a workshop to fit the standard hub. Then once again some new caliper mounts and a set of suitable calipers.
Of course i also wont forget a suitable master cylinder, but seems like a different issue.
If anyone can confirm or outright dismiss any of this incessant rambling, please do.
