Tamiya 350Z and SAS brake help needed

I'm working on a 350Z track and I would like to use a set of SAS brakes that I have had around for a while. I've never used them before and I need to know how to install them. Do I apply the SAS brakes to the brake discs supplied with the kit and modify them? If I did that, I guess I would need to cut off the calipers on the stock brakes. Or, do I replace the brakes entirely with the SAS brakes? Any help is appreciated; photos are also appreciated.

Re: Tamiya 350Z and SAS brake help needed

I have never used SAS brake set but IIRC, you will need to remove at least the rotors and callipers from your kit part and maybe thin out the hub if necessary to let it fit through the hole in the centre for wheel mounting.

Take a good look at the kit parts and rotors first, do some test fitting and I am sure you will figure out what will work best
