i have seen a set on the net ex austalia - 6 pot calibers and slotted larger discs , braided barke lines etc pretty grunty looking

was from memory around $2600. Brembo / Wilwood will have some options avavilable no doubt. just depends on what how much moneys you have to put into them

talk to wagonist on toymods in australia - hes upgraded a caldina with st205 4 pots with success

Same proicess as you use to upgrade St185 or Aw11 to st205 discs and rotors ..

5mm spacer , caliper mounted to opposite side of strut . machine rotor to 305mm diameter , custom brake lines - and longer landcruiser studs and your basically there.

I used the same process on my St185 group A to great effect ..

now i have factory fitted ones on my st205 group A
