Oz_Craig : Smart arse Laughing Laughing but funny.

If I can remember properly, hilux struts/calipers & peugeot discs. I think some brake place sells them as a kit. But I'd do a search(no pun intended) to double check.

yep IDB automotive or something similar are meant to sell a kit. Has anybody ever bought one of these kits? if so how much was it and what do you think? Very Happy

http://www.toymods.org.au/sprinter_front_brakes
http://www.toymods.org.au/phill_brake

tho i'm not sure how different the TA22 front disks would be to RA23 and up.

In short, enough. Though I do remember visiting IDB Automotive and being told first hand that two different TA22 brake upgrades were available in kit form or as roll-in/roll-out conversions.

There's lots of options here, the cheapest and easiest is probably grabbing a set of RT132 struts and brakes complete, grinding off the larger lower spring perches and replacing with the smaller TA22 items, and bolting in with the TA22 strut tops! An extra 1.5" of brake rotor to grab, with twin spot callipers, and the basis of the Hilux 4 spot calliper/Puegoet vented rotor that is so popular. You'll also come away with larger wheel bearings, an advantage in many situations.

search is good, but

hilux calipers, xt130 struts, peugeot slightly modified rotors.
all go together apparently.

remember to also increase the ID of your master cylinder. extra fluid to push those extra pistons!

RA40 struts, UZS131 rotors, mazda 4 spots

Or, if you're a little more keen, R33 Skyline brakes Evil or Very Mad I think I've described both before (search!), if any hassles, ask!

Any corona struts you bolt on to a TA22 are longer than the original struts so you are going to change your suspension geometry as a result. 'Search' for the DBA on-line catelogue and look through the Toyota section. You should be able to find a larger replacement rotor for your standard item that might only need a little machining to make fit. Then a pair of calipers to suit, using a custom adapter mounting plate, and you should be fine. Be careful with the wheels bearings you need in this combination as well.
Cheers,
Mitch.
