yeah, they are relativly common... sets pop up on trademe every now and then...

i havent done the mods required (was lucky enough to pick up a set already modded to suit) to fit them, but i do know you'll need to do some machining of the calliper cradle/bracket and in some cases the rotor to allow everything to line up properly. Also you need to get some longer lines made up as well.

I'll take some pics tonight (im doing this upgrade atm) so you can get a better idea...

Ok, so i wont take pics, coz that site is so much better

Yep mine is an 82 as well... is white with odd black panels. Looks more like a panda than a car.

Currently just have some King springs and kyb dampner adjustable shocks, with an adjustable rear swaybar to tighten things up. Will be investigating coilovers at some point
