    Default VT brake upgrade

    I know this has been covered but haven't found the right answers. Car is 93 Vp V6 calais so i want the abs to work after upgrade. Do you have to change over master cylinder booster etc? Got some good discs other day so i want to have a go. From what i can see from kit is, calipers, adaptor hubs and brake lines apart from the discs. I don't want a dodgey setup so if there is an accident i don't have the book thrown at me.

    The ABS will still work as it has nothing to do with the master cylinder, calipers or rotors.

    Putting a VT set up on the VP will need the VT master cylinder only for pedal feel, or you could use a VN-VP V8 1" master cylinder.
