...I will say that you can make anything work with the rite amount of $$$$$ ;-)
Brackets are self explanitory since you can have them made. But,
rotors will be difficult to source off DER shelf. You have to find a rotor that has the proper offset to match the brackets to give you the proper spaceing.
Now if it's money you wanna spend you can have custome rotor hats made & use an off DER shelf Willwood or Coleman rotor ring. You might even find a Porsche rotor ring to work as well.

One other thing as it pertains to the rotors. You'll find that the UFO hubs are unique to themselfs. If you compair that hub to a Urs car hub found on the Mcferson struts that people usually use.

In any event, good luck with your resurch & keep us informed on what you find.
