I was reading the How-to on the rear disc brake conversion, not quite clear on the parts needed, could someone clarify.

Parts:

1. Caliper from any 6th gen cel w/out ABS - do these have to be from a celica?
2. Rotor - check
4. Internal Brake components for parking brake - I can use the drum brake St parts for this right?
5. Backplate - whats this?
6. Parking brake cable from a 6th gen GT - heard you could use the one from the st.

Won't the older gen parts work also? I think 4th and 5th gens parts should work... but then again, I've never attempted this mod. All I know is, 4th gens are pretty common at the junkyards around this area.

negative, 4th gens and 5th gen STs had 4 lug hubs. mike and i are working on a kit that will be available thru topshelfracing, now that i've gotten past my major schoolwork for the semester, i can start getting the ball rolling on my end. smile.gif
