Enough said. I have a few ideas, but I am sure there are more experienced people regarding this.

You can either not use the Tamiya brakes, and use Fujimi Brembo brakes and rim, glued directly onto the Tamiya "hub", or grind the bushing off the back of the Fujimi wheel and make a Tamiya like pin for it. There is probably a thread on this conversion somewhere with other ideas, anyway it isn't very hard to do. The biggest problem is Tamiya machines the back of there wheel spokes so they will clear the brake caliper, Tamiya uses full width calipers which are usually thicker than Fujimi's, so there is a potoential problem with not getting the Fujimi wheel pushed in far enough before it hits the caliper.:)
