    As long as total piston area remains the same you'll have no problems from the abs computer.

    I've searched this to death.
    I'm a big fan of big brakes, but in the case of the VX, Joe is correct -the VX has plenty of brakes for the type of driving it was designed for.
    If you're just looking to fill the wheels, there might be a Baer EradiSpeed kit that will swap over (no luck finding one though).

    You could do custom hats/rotors through Wilwood or DBA, and then source your calipers from any number of manufacturers. Add mounting brackets (custom) and lines and you're there.
    The best tip that I can give you is to do a search for "Bruce Garland +Jackaroo". He had upgraded brakes on his racing trucks -I haven't had any luck in getting specs for them though.
