Vented & slotted disc brakes - new
4 piston brake calipers - rebuilt
Brake pads - new
Can you give some specifics about these items? Size/thickness of rotor? Out of which car would be useful too.
What kind of 4 pots, rx7, z31, etc? And what kind of pads on these?
Do you have the adaptor plate to bolt this setup to the hub? Or are you using a different hub altogether?
Willing to separate any of the items?
Eddie.

As per the celica brake upgrade in the 'Tech Articles' section:
Corona XT130 Struts
Peugeot 604 front discs, 273mm x 20mm
Hilux 4WD - LN106 (1989-1993) 4 piston calipers
The setup uses a custom wound 6kg/mm spring that uses the top perch of an ae71/86 to provide plenty of clearance.

Yeh, EOI just means 'make an offer'
It cost me $1300 but some of that obviously includes labour and rebuilding of parts..
To do it yourself without the height adjustable gear goes something like this (very approx):
XT130 struts - 100
Hilux caplipers - 160
Brakes - 320
Brake disc mods - 50
Pads - 80
Custom spring - 200
If your really lucky maybe $800 - with possibly rooted shocks and caliper pistons..
But I've had everything rebuilt so it cost a little more..

Oh and Big T,
Theres no adapter plate needed,
Not much point seperating the bits and pieces - all the parts are available in your part of the world..

Thanks mate. I was actually only interested in the brake bits. My sprinter struts already have cusco coilovers fitted so i need a brake upgrade that uses those struts, hence the need for an adaptor plate. Good luck with the sale anyways!

Springs are brand new,
The shocks are (used), but have been rebuilt to suit the rest of the set-up.
