Using Ford, Toyota & Mazda Parts on a Restomod '71 Nissan Skyline

With solid rotor single piston callipers on the front and drum brakes on the rear assisted by a tiny brake booster, The Hakosuka was never going to stop in a hurry. Add 500hp to the rear wheels and the need for good braking is even more important. The front struts were swapped out with a combination of Mazda RX7 & Toyota Ke70 coilovers and the front brakes converted to 287mm AU Falcon Rotors and Twin piston Callipers using a Hopper Stoppers Kit. The rear brakes consists of Mazda 3 Rotors and Callipers using some custom adapter brackets and an adjustable Spring and Shock combo from Japan.
