ok, no matter how I try I come out looking like the bad guy.

you asked this same question on this thread

READ HERE !!!

and I guess the answer is pretty clear, if you had questions about using ST205 disc brakes, you could have asked on the same thread to keep information in one place.

to answer that.

yes ST205 disc will fit, but there are some unclear issues, which " may " be due to small differences on knuckles depending on the year.

I was able to bolt on the caliper using Stock St205 disc with no modification to the disc, the 3mm spacer was still required to avoid contact with the ball joint. and there were no issues with this, but using a different knuckle the disc was just a hair too big, I was able to bolt the caliper down, but once bolted down, the disc wouldn't be able to spin freely, which suggest that at least 3 mm have to be grinded off from the radious of the disc ( 6 mm from total diameter )


the reason why I'm still using Cadillac catera disc is because they are easy to get, and very affordable, the cost of ST205 disc + shipping from Europe / Asia is not worthy to me.

just in case

READ HERE !!

I completed this brake conversion over a year ago, and I drive my car every single day ( 90 miles round trip ) so I can say that this has been tested tongue.gif
