I swear I'll never ever ever do brake work again. This is absolute hell. First I have to rig up custom lines for the rear, then my back brake setup doesn't fit, then I get it to fit and the cables don't work, and now I'm having severe problems with my front brakes.
My front brake setup is as follows: ST185 dual-piston calipers ST185 dual-piston caliper brackets ST184/ST185 Brembo rotors (Part number 25440) According to what I'd read and what I was told, everything should bolt together. This is not the case. The caliper bracket is so far from being able to reach the bolt holes on the hub. The bracket hits the rotor before it can reach the holes, and is approximately 10mm from reaching the hub bolt holes. I was told that GT calipers bolt right on to the ST hub...is this true? Because I was also told that the dual-piston calipers will replace the GT calipers. I got the ST184 rotors because I figured they'd be the right size for the calipers. They're 2mm larger in diameter than the ST204 rotors but they're more thin. Anyone have any ideas as to why nothing fits? I'm about to kill my car. -------------------- New Toyota project coming soon...
