just for info.
some KE20/25 had 4 drums.
some had 200mm front disks with akebono calipers.
the KE1X series also had the option of front discs (200mm) but the pistons in the akebono calipers are 10% smaller area.
there ARE also PBR calipers for both KE1 and KE2, but these are much rarer, being aussie built and supplied versions.
do you have a 2 bolt or 3 bolt strut bottom?
does your KE25 have a transverse leaf at the front?
some did (early) and some didn't (late)
basically some have KE1x running gear 
oh yeah, and abotu the max you can fit is a 10A legally (being 2L) an NA 12A is 2.4L which is a bit big for engineer to pass.
also the crack centreline of a rotor is very high, so say goodbye to your transmission tunnel... if you went turbo you'd want to fit a supra box anyway...

ps, a better idea would be to sell the mint KE25 to someone who wil keep it original, and then get a shitter to convert to turbo rotor...
