Going to paint the arms and spindle silver/grey, do like the silver better though should be interested finding high temp filler and 2pac paint.


I don't think it does include pistons. The part number I got for the pistons is 47731-35040, at around $30. I think that price might be PER piston as well :o

As far as a high temp paint in silver and a 2 pac I know international paints does one that they use in smelters etc. you need to get it to 400deg after applying to it to go off right otherwise it's a powdery finish without the heat. I will get the product codes tomorrow and post. Bear in mind it is an industrial paint not automotive but will handle the heat no worries

I know you probably want to do it properly but VHT (very high temperature) does a whole range of spray paints for different parts of the car. Can get it from autobahn for $20

Mightve been posted already, but why have you done away with the wilwood brake setup?

Easier to get passed by an engineer and mod plated, would of gone 6 pot wilwoods but then it will throw the system out and would need a new master to suit the increase in caliper piston size, prado had similar pad surface area to the 6 pots anyway...
