    Default AE86 Brake Upgrade kits

    Hey guys ive recently purchased some BR coilovers for my AE86 which i put a 1G-GTE in and need a front brake upgrade for it, im after a kit that bolts straight up with no messing around like the willwoods but im just not sure if there's any other kits out there and a bit cheaper, cheers

    yep, standard hub fits and im pretty sure the lines fit as well. but having crappy old rubber lines in god knows what condition you might want to change them anyway.

    You may need a proportioning valve in your parts list, nothing worse than a car that locks the rears before the fronts.

    BTW - I'm running a full bolt on 4 Piston Wilwood setup I designed for my corona struts. No adapter plates, just shaved hubs, billet caliper spacer and a re-drilled rotor.
    Unlike the T3 Kit, mine is hub-centric on the hub mounting face for the rotor, No clearance issues or wheel spacers needed as the calipers sits lower than the hub face!
