Forgot to comment on this part....
I know using the toyota OEM stuff is pretty much not possible due to its size, but toyota is not the only company that uses this type of setup. GM has a very tight and conceled unit on the C5 and C6 Corvette's. The shoes are the same 190mm diameter as most all of the OEM toyota stuff but the they are only about 20 to 25mm wide... The C5 / C6 vette setup is very simple yet effective setup and was specifically designed to fit in a very tight spot. The GM shoes and actuators on a set of custom backing plates and I dont thing that it'll stick out past the face of the stock hub flange.
I need to get ahold of a set of the shoes to get some exact dimentions on them though to be sure. Also a similar setup was used on the GTO's but they are only 180mm diameter. I also think that they used a very similar setup on the new G6's and G8's too but Im not sure of this.
