Hi all. I have recently checked out front brakes on my mate's newly bought GT4 and really liked what i've seen - bigger disks and much bigger calipers - tempting
 ! Has anyone ever tried fitting st205's front brakes to a st202 with a superstrut?? Just want to know if that is possible... Thanks a lot! -------------------- TRD -ST205- [color="#4B0082"][/color][size="5"][/size][font="Palatino Linotype"][/font] |

Its will be a straight swap without any problems. check Maikl profile - he fitted GT4 brakes on his SSIII.
SSIII and GT4 (basicly all ST202 with superstrut) share the same structure of the front suspension components, and they can be interchargible between ST202 and ST205 without any problems. Exept springs are different on ST205 (they are stiffer, and have a little bit different spring ration) -------------------- Ex celica owner - just a guy from other side of the pond...

I mean discs, calipers and so on.

Was almost sure it is the scenario but needed another opinion  I'll ask Maikl if he is happy with his conversion. So the Lower Ladder Frame (Cusco, etc.) should also fit, correct? Thanks again! -------------------- TRD -ST205- [color="#4B0082"][/color][size="5"][/size][font="Palatino Linotype"][/font] |
