I thought they where always 5 stud because of the increase in kerb weight ?? What are you planning :Giggle ?

I have all the brake bits you need if you want them cheaply. FC calipers front and rear, newish FC disks. I do have some FD front calipers but going to put them on My FC. let us know if you want anything.

The US 4 stud ones had puny brakes....

Wont they be the same PCD as your Gen 1 hubs ?
 
I thought they were 4x114.3 or am I barking up the wrong tree ?

they will be but the gen 1 is a differnet set up with the bearings and studs sitting in the discs (no seperate hub) the gen 2 uses a hub with the back bearing and studs, these fit the FB spindles, the early 4 stud gen 2 hubs then need a slight milling to get the bigger t11 discs to fit i will then just need to drill 3 holes to the 114 x 4 PCD, respeed do a conversion kit to fit the FC/FD calipers,
rears are easier as i want to keep the 114 x 4 i just need the FC conversion kit and drill the discs
im in no hurry to do this just gathering parts at the minute but the conversion has been done in the US

You may have to wait a bit longer for them - plenty of life still left in them at the mo - but if you need any measurements off them let me know.
