You need the steering knuckles, rotors and calipers.

Stick with 1g VR4 front brake calipers and skip the rears.

The steering knuckle is what the hub, strut, ball joint and tie rod attach to.

You can't put VR4 brakes on without using the VR4 steering knuckle.

Yes. Rears have very little to do with stopping the car. Besides he 1g VR4 rears aren't much different that NA brakes.

The rears on a 1g VR4 are 1 piston, just like NA's. Dont worry about the brake booster.

No proportioning valve needed either.
