Front Brake upgrade

Hi,

This has probably been covered before but;

Has anyone here done a front brake upgrade using commonly found parts in Australia , or are the imported kits easy enough to get spare parts for?

I recently did up front brakes: new rotors, new pads, new caliper piston seals and new guide pin seals and found it cheaper to buy parts online from "Van Cafe" (I think) and even when they sent it via Fed Ex it was still way cheaper. Their USPS would be even cheaper, although much slower (if it is not too heavy). I know it doesn't help Australian vendors, but I am trying to keep my van on the road for a reasonable cost.
