Just noticed the kits on maddat anyone tried these as yet?

I don't know anybody that has...
the $$$ are up there if it's bolt on gear..

cheaper that neils kits and ya dont have to beg for them but being maddat i wouldnt touch with 10 foot pole

I had a similar kit a while back that someone else did
on my original B10 and worked well but needed to change
(this kit fits 14 inch minimum) which caused me rwc issues
and the boys in blue catching me on the way back home on
the same day and pointing out 14s are one inch over the
allowable Vicroads engineering limit in Victoria :(

I spent months looking for a better than 1200 coupe hubs
and custom caliper bracket until I cracked the Sigma/1200
hybrid setup which worked with 13 inches.

I think Neils setup is the best as its vented

However if you must (dont say Ive never helped you Brent!)
Here goes....

256mm disc (dba 411 opened up 1mm) around $80-120 a pair new
reconditioned VN Caliper - $ 40 wreckers
new rubber lines, 2 x $50 ENZED or other
mounting brackets $80-100 laser cut your own or use modded
sigma GE ones 78-80 they should work. At worst use rear
caliper brackets from commonho or Pintara.

i know youve always been a wealth of knowledge D
hyundai sonata (either rear or front) discs slip over the top of the 1000 hub, ive got a set of landcruiser 4 pots sitting around collecting dust that i will use for now, ive still got to make up the mounting bracket from mdf board then get them laser cut out of steel, i might get a bulk lot done for anyone that wishes to use them, i will be using 14" wheels but will have the lowest possible profile tyre i can slip over it. was wondering if anyone has used it as my brother is in need of something and if he gets this kit i could just make a template of these mounts

Just something to be aware of is that landcruz calipers are so darn heavy
so Id be more inclined to use another caliper thats lighter.
Most brakes larger than 1200 ones are a good starting point but if your
brother needs bigger he best use Mazda rx7 s4/5 alloy calipers on the
Hyundai (vented?) rotors or sylvia rotors. The weight of the landcruz calis
are quite a drag on such a simple and light front end.

yeh just gunna use em till i eventually acquire something better, ill look into the rx7 calipers, the rotor is 25mm thick, and yes vented

cruiser calipers suit 18mm discs though, the commonly used 60 series ones anyway

next up is 80 series and i think they use 30mm thick ones

What happened to the vanette conversion? No dice?

on a car this light you really need the lightest braking package you can put together. i would stay well away from landcruiser/hilux calipers as they're both heavy and physically massive.

anything 230-250mm and vented with compact calipers and decent pads will be HEAPS in a car of this weight.
