I've seen on older posts that there is a conversion kit for GTO calipers, Does anybody know if there is a kit still around?

I think Freaky parts in the UK might still do them, or they have other options too as well.

Failing that could do what Vectose did and use GTO hubs. Think he needed just different CVs to suit the spline count. (they also increase the track a bit though)

Yeah freaky parts have a bracket to fit gto calipers instead of their kit,

What about the master cylinder and booster? Will they need to be changed to suit the new calipers?

As far as I know it's not strictly necessary. GTO calipers aren't huge either (though dunno how much that correlates to the size of the pistons). If your car has ABS it will already have a larger booster/master cyl (one of the two, I forget which lol). I had an ABS version put into my car as it has the 4-pot STi Brembos; Tim rates it a PITA of a job though lol.

Have fitted FP kit.. It works .. It requires no other upgrades apart from what is listed on their site..
