The hoppers stoppers kit is an excellent kit. I'm building a TE cortina with the kit with cross drilled/slotted rotors approx $1250. Kit is a complete bolt on to existing stub axles with the standard AU rims will fit the hub that hoppers machine up. Kit is complete with bearings, castell nut, split pins, grease cap, twin piston PBR calipers, brake lines. Peter Koning is the guy I dealt with very helpful. Stay away from CRS kit.

Joe

PS: Another alternative is injected 5L from EB-EL and stroke to 347 and turbo that combo.

They do do mail order, not sure about a retailer in Syd. Check out their website, send them an email. I found Peter to be very helpful. And the kit looks very good too.
