1st gen Big Break kits

I've been looking around, is there anyplace that sells a big break kit for the first gen? Or do we have to fabricate a set?

there are no pre-fabed kits, but some people have done a bit of research on what parts you can buy to make one sort of kit for them... let me see if I can find the link...

ok... I've looked and can't find it, but someone did most of the research of putting a nice wildwood setup on a 1st gen. try searching (sorry)

It should should. Although in Aus, the 84/85's all have GSL-SE suspensions and brakes.

There is a guy on the Mazspeed forum who has a set on his car, and his is not an SE, if that helps.

check out www.corksport.com

I was talking to a guy that works there and he said there is about 4 different big brake conversions that they sell as a kit. Said they have a Volvo brake kit, and a 3rd gen upgrade. I dunno how legitamet it is but said they have it. I havent checked it out. give them a call, its not listed on the website.
