Just wanted to know if the rear brakes off a BF XR8/Turbo (vented) will fit on an AU1 IRS.If they can,I would suspect that the calipers would be different to make up for the thicker rotor.

Calipers, pads (obviously) and rotors, but are bolt on, no mods necessary. 303mm iirc.
I run BA/F fronts, same deal there, 298mm rotor, caliper and pads, bolt straight on.

I didnt think you could add AU2-3/Bseries onto AU1's without upgrading other parts...

You made need to space the rear calipers a fraction away from the hub mounts. I did with my rear brake upgrade (albeit a live axle wagon), but I have heard from many people including Race Brakes say that you need to if putting B series rear brakes on an AU. A 2mm - 3mm washer between the caliper and hub is enough.
The reason is that the caliper hits the disc other wise.

Does anyone know of someone who might be able to make these up or is it a "do it yourself" job?
