I have just completed the following.

 

XT130 Strut, Converted to Coilovers - As per article, work a treat.

XT130 Hubs

DBA Slotted XT130 Discs

XT130 Twin Pot - Sumiatomo Calipers

EBC Greenstuff Ceramic Pads

 

All Cheap and easy, seems to initially be braking OK, but need to spend more time bleeding brake lines. Not quite right here, might need new master.

u need a bigger master for this brack upgrade otherwise ur paddle will feel spangy n go to the floor cause the 4 spot calipers need more fluid pushed in to them to get them to work and your orginal brake master dosn't push enough fluid to them this is y you have to pump the peddle.

You don't need a bigger MC for the conversion Mikey_M has done. The standard one is perfectly fine for the 2 spot Corona callipers.

 

The H/P/C one in the link you posted is for massive 4 spot callipers from a Hi-lux. In the case of that, then yes you will need to upgrade to a 15/16" minimum MC. :wink:

 

The other 4 piston upgrade that is more used is the RX7 calliper upgrade. Lighter setup with alloy callipers as opposed to big bloody cast hilux ones. Though, they both will make a 900kg corolla stop on a dime :y:
