As vlct2010 said... I did the VX GTS 4 pot brakes all round with braided lines with front hubs, rear hubs and VT/VX master booster conversion for about $3500-$4000 Some original photos have not been recovered yet.

Nissan 4 spots with adapter brackets and SV5000 rotors are the most cost effective upgrade and work a treat
