Patrol Tico

Well, just as I write it...
Here in CR we have been forgotten by Nissan. Today I went to buy the brake hoses (front) for my Y60 and they don't have them...I tried to buy the master cylinder's kit and they don't have it... I wanted then to buy the whole master cylinder and guess what? they don't have it.... I went to a bunch of other places where I thought I could buy these parts and nothing. So I wonder, since I first had a Patrol 1986 SD33 and I could almost always find whatever I needed, now I own a ten years younger car and they don't have anything and if they do is horrible expensive. Those hoses that I am talking about are US$30 each!!!
Now, I think I red here some place that a convertion can be made, let me explain: I can put the booster and master cylinder of a Y61 (GU) on a Y60 (GQ), now, is this correct? Would I see a big difference in the braking department of my Y60? this is a very heavy car and we have spent some money and time in making this car to brake as it is suppoused. Any help is very welcome. PT
