hello
I was just wondering which would be a better option.
Getting uprated discs and pads for the standard ST calipers,
or changing to GT calipers using standard discs and pads?
Any info much appreciated.
thankyou

If you have good brakes on your ST, upgrading to GT brakes won't make that much of a difference.

When I swapped out the rear drums for disc brakes, I thought the ST fronts looked like they were the same size as the GT rears. It was strange looking to me, that's pretty much the reason I decided to put GT fronts in also. I had good brakes with the ST setup and noticed little to no difference in braking power with the GT setup, I think the little difference I did notice was probably all psychological. But if nothing else, it looks much better.
