I rang them again today and they'll do BA calipers & rotos in the package for no extra cost, so I'm pretty happy about that. Still want to confirm the ABS will hook straight up to BA calipers though, although I presume it will. Is any sort of engineering cert or anything required for changing brakes over? I don't think there would be, just if anyone can confirm this. Cheers!
The ABS isn't actually connected to the discs or callipers at all, really. The ABS "ring" is part of the hub that the disc mounts on, and the activation of the ABS is by pulsing the calliper through the change of pressure in the brake fluid. So this setup should not affect the way your ABS works at all.

Oh - and thanks for the info. Even if freight is around $150, you've just saved me around $400 odd. Cheers.
