Craig, Best bet for your rear would be AE92 GTI or SX rears, which you need the calipers and the rear carriers. Also with the fronts, you'll need the steering knuckles and calipers for an AE101 and all will bolt in no fuss. Your master cylinder will be alright.

AE 92 and AE101 have different rear control arm mounts on the knuckles. Definately not bolt in.
As above, stick with AE 92 stuff!
(knuckles = carriers)

Do people on this forum have trouble reading?? REARS=AE92 GTI OR SX FRONT= AE10# will bolt up questions answered! If you want to be real serious I can make you these...
with twin spot rears.... Those are AE92 front Knuckles on a AE102!! Price depends on the caliper you want to use.

Craig, Boring out the booster is crap, could be worn and need a service, on that brake conversion above I've used the standard brake booster for the car, and all works well at 200kph!

R32 GTR's, got them cheaper than the RX7's. Got to keep in mind I was on a budget .... AP or Brembo = $15,000 or GTR or RX7 = $5,000
This is for a whole lot of other work as well

I am not challenging you.
I was explaining the difference in the rear knuckles between the two models (ie. why it will not fit). Personally I like to know why, not just yes or no.
I do not understand your bitterness.

Ok, The conversion consists of the following componets- Front: Landcrusier DBA slotted Discs Bolted to a custom hat, Nissan GTR Calipers, the mounting for the factory calipers on the knuckle are cut off and a new machined mount is welded on. The welding is has to be done by a pro, as any weakness = no brakes! Rear: DBA AE102 slotted fronts, with the hat machined off to suit custom hat. GTR Calipers, mounted using a new bracket which bolts directly to the existing mounts. I run a H/Brake and bais valves as this is on a competition Rally car, but engineering is still necessary.

Sure on the rear, the 101 would be the better choice for the front, larger diameter

Sorry bad day in the office... I think the difference between the two models is cost. There's alot more work involve in producing the AE9# setup in the rear than the 10#, as for strength, the AE9# looks more robust for the abuse I give, but in the end ther do the same job.

There 16" which I run on Tarmac events. On dirt events, I use a 15" wheel and a 12mm wheel spacer just to clear the caliper and the rim.
