The chassis is the same for the ST and GT.
Brakes are drum in the back of the ST and the GT has disk. ST has a different engine, hence different mounting locations, but the holes for the GT mounts are still there / indents in the frame are there. Most ST's don't come with the front factory strut stabilizer bar. Sway bars can be different, but they're different throughout each model as well. I guess it depended on who was putting the car together that day. -------------------- 1994 Toyota Celica GT-S 5S-FE 190k Miles. Project car 1992 Toyota Celica GT 5S-FE 170k Miles.

Just want to understand what I'm in for with this project. Having a difficult time gathering factual information from many celica forums, I've been around the block and the hardcore info is scares.
