What are my options with upgrading to larger brakes on the celly? Are there any other cars that have interchangeable rotors/spindles that are larger? Also, is there anywhere that I can buy a GT4 front suspension in the US? I have a Gen III 3sgte, and eventually plan on going AWD once I find the trans..then i'll rip up the floor panels and change the gas tank out and put all of the parts necessary on it to make it AWD. I just need to know who can bring in JDM parts. I've been talking to Joel at Toysport in Cali, and every once in a while he has someone go to Japan and bring back parts (that's how I got my head gasket), but is there anyone that orders those parts directly from Japan? Thanks in advance for the help guys!

I don't know exactly everything I need for the AWD conversion. I do know i'll need the GT4 gas tank because of the rear axle, and I would obviously need the rear axle/driveshaft, and I'm pretty sure i would need the front axles and spindles, maybe even shocks..i don't know how much of that stuff you're getting. I'm thinking about finding a junk AWD 5th gen on island and making the stuff fit. Check ebay japan then see what shipping options are to here. If I had extra cash I would pitch in so you could get that shipped here. -------------------- -Jay
