brake disks off another car that fit our rear hubs

^ I'm in the uk this week so may be collecting on my iced green tea tokens :-D
although too cold for iced green tea I think :-S maybe need a drop of polish vodka :-)

I have brackets and discs to run bigger disc upfront using the standard caliper. Not a massive upgrade as the standard calipers are rubbish but change the pads and this gives you better braking could be a option for those (as a lot are keeping the standard look) if it helps anyone I could dig it out for more info

Worked on my car with a bottle vodka this arvo, was a good time

^ H&S mr woody, you bad boy

This would warm you up

^ No green tea in that
I think I would over heat drinking that

Remember he's Australian.

They have DRIVE-THROUGH bottle shops.

Haha yes the drive-through is very convenient

Thats doesnt look like something you drink .... more like a rust preventor

caliper carrier bracket part# 619503  .or   141506

I ordered a set of these brackets, finding an online site that shipped internationally was annoying. Ended up finding on eBay but using 14-1506

If you ever get stuck. You can have t
Things shipped here and i can ship them out for you to oz.
Means double postage costs but atleast you get the parts

Thanks stu, I'll keep that in mind normally I don't have a problem but these must not be common here.

B, can you change to maxima rear pads with this conversion? Aren't they slightly bigger?

No I don't believe they are, you could check the measurements in a brake pad catalogue but i'm sure they were both same.
maxima discs are 5 hole so need redrilling.
It only 10mm radius increase & just repositioning the standard caliper same as the hispec & godspeed rear 280 kits, they did do 300mm on standard caliper & pad too.

I'll check it and see what I can find B. I'm changing to 5stud hubs so its is easier for me to do this upgrade

From what I can figure out they are the same pad 105mm x 47mm

Are you redrilling your rear hubs or using a different hub?

N15 hubs woody ???

Nah n15 hubs are the same pattern as ours but fwd. Not keen on the redrilling hubs, I think the new holes would be to close to the edge of the hub anyway. Stracher Motorsport do 5 stud hubs for our car. I'm also waiting to hear back from a company in the states about them aswell.
