without trying to hard sell the kits we at Saturn supply but if you look on our website in the stores page under brake & suspension products, it lists what parts are in our "Brake kits",
hope this helps, & if you have trouble sourcing the parts .... you know where to get them

cheers

Well your also going to need some T-pieces for the rear and also where you attach the pressure switch too. Then you'll need all your unions for connecting it together. Also don't forget all your P clips for fixing the lines down, along with the tools for flaring and bending the copper hose.

The kits we supply are universal, & so yes, depending on how you intend to route your brake lines to your rear discs this kit should do the job, tho I have read somewhere some folk put an extra "T" piece in for rear disc setups

cheers

with the standard master cylinder isnt it one line to the rears and a line to each of the fronts as there are only 3 points on the master cylinder

just a thought andy looking at your kits i dont think your rear flexis will clar the wheels when using the book spec uprights for discs and turning the calipers upside down.
