Jap disk T-series are overpriced and arent that great. Aus T-series have bigger drums than the stock S-series. Plus drum brakes lock up well 
Just rip one out of a T-18, weld it and fit it!

drum to disc conversion on teh t18 rear is a waste of time imo. and like everyone else is saying, drums are better for handbrakies!
