I'm not trying to mislead people ... it's true that drums offer better stopping power but in the long run can't dispel the heat generated as quickly as discs. To Sprinterboy4AGZE who asked the question in the first place, I know you probably bought the Sprinter with a 4AGZE which is a start however if that is all the mods that have been done on the car, you'd better rethink a stronger diff + driveline + gearbox to complement the 4AGZE. Don't follow the crowd converting to discs just becuz everyone else does it. Know the reason why they do and then decide if that is the reason for it. Getting discs may not necessarily give you the stopping power you're looking for. Perhaps a Hilux diff will stand the power with drums. I know of a Datsun 260Z up here that is running R32 Skyline engine + driveline. That car still manages to brake effectively with disc fronts & drum rears (which are ventilated). Perhaps the best advice is to see who else is running a Sprinter 4AGZE and find out what setup they are using. From past experience, there have been many threads of broken T-50 gearboxes ... so that may be the downside of owning a 4AGZE Rwd car. Good luck & do your research well before diving in!
