i might have a rear disc setup mate,calipers might need a refurb and you will need a handbrake cable,its the rear setup from my xr4x4 but the discs are slightly smaller than the cossie discs i think so if you went with cossie discs you might need different caliper carriers

Drat. They look nice the twins, plus you get a nice air feed to the filter. I got some pictures up. Got a thread up in this forum. If you click on my profile name you should be able to find my thread. She don't look much at the mo but hopefully be different within a year or so. Should be pretty powerfull too what with the big turbo. I've been gettin some gip for that turbo mind lol. What you got planned for the back? A big ICE install?
