ST165 Brake Qs

I'll keep this in a simple yes/no format
I want some better from brakes for my ST162 and was thinking about grabbing some 4-pot calipers for it from the ST165 or something similar, here's some quick Qs
1. Do I need new brake lines (for fitting purposes)?
2. Do they bolt-on to the ST162 mounting?
3. Is the disc the same size?
4. Are they are bastard to find?
5. I'm assuming the brake-pad is different size/shape (correct?)
Cheers for any help!

umm the ST165 has twin-pot calipers. I have done this conversion, so I will answer all your questions  I may have spoken to you about this before, if I have repeated myself... sorry
1. No
2. Yes
3. Yes
4. I dunno, these came up for sale on the forums and I just bought them. Got them off Juzzo, he may be able to get you some, but just phone a Jap spares import place.
5. Yeah, I actually didn't compare as mine came with pads, but I seem to recall they looked different. Just go to any decent place and get them to match you up some.
Hope this helps

Yeah I've seen evidence in regards to 4-pot calipers before but I guess they aren't off of a ST165. I might email TRD about them just in case, but sounds like those ST165 calipers are fairly easy to work with! Cheers.
