    found a set of hilux discs for the stout, got me wondering, are there any upgrades for them? i.e. are the calipers the same as the later model 4x4? on those I know you can get vented rotors/v6 calipers (unfortunately it does act as a spacer) but gives a considerable inprovement in stopping power.

    Would plan on upgrading the master cylinder while im in there but anything else that can help?

    If you can use 84-94 front end spindles you can convert to 12.19" wilwood rotors and 4wd calipers
    That what I did on my 93...
