I have ST185 single pot calipers and rotors on my AT200 front knuckles, they fit perfect.

And the post comes back to life!
So from what I understand, the ST185 Dual Piston calipers are better than the 165 Dual pistons. Has anyone been able to find brake pads for these yet? And Coomer, I don't know if this was before or after your post about the ST185s giving you problems. How did that end up? You got the brakes on? And let me know if you found the brake pads. EDIT: How do you detach the brake line from the Caliper without breaking it? When I painted my calipers and the ones on my brother's tC, it seemed like it was hrard to get off. How would you take it off? This post has been edited by JoKeRkId613: Nov 9, 2005 - 4:03 PM --------------------  |

Where did you hear that ST185 dual pistons are better than ST165 dual pistons? And you remove the line with a special line wrench. -------------------- New Toyota project coming soon...

ooo. lol. my mistake. i misread the information. i thought i read that some people switch the st165 calipers for st185 calipers. lol. did you ever find brake pads for it tho? coom, i coulda sworn you bought the st185 brakes from someone and claimed that they didnt fit or something like that? so all i would need are the calipers and break pads and these will work on ym at200, right? what about the rear st185/165 disc breaks? are those dual pistons? would they fit my AT200? THANKS IN ADVANCE.

i'm assuming GT calipers can't be swapped for Alltrac ones too? only the STs can?

Has anyone done this? I have ST165 calipers at the moment (they were a price I could not refuse) but what rotors is everyone using? I don't think the ST165 rotors are fitting....

Right - but the ROTORS are not fitting - and the Calipers are offset big time - as they use a larger rotor - so you can't use ST rotors

I am running ST165 calipers and rotors with the following modifications:
The middle hole in the rotor had to be enlarged to fit the hub correctly I used two washers from home depot on each brake mount to scoot the caliper back to match the offset provided by the rotors. We just got done with a 24 hour endurance event using this setup with EBC Red stuff and let me tell you...... AWESOME AWESOME AWESOME AWESOME AWESOME -------------------- -Mike

anybody have any pics of the st185 twin piston front brake calipers on an AT200 celica?
also I know that some SS-III and all GT-4 come with twin piston front brake calipers, and both SS-III and GT-4 have superstrut suspension, but are both calipers the same? Do SS-III celica come with the same brake set up as the gt-4. and the SS-II celica that came with mcpherson suspension, will those fit on gt sized brake rotors??? -------------------- Group buy to replicate Narrow E series transaxle parts

Thats weird because on my girlfriends at200 I was able to use the stock st rotors with the st165 twin piston calipers just fine.

The thing is, why would you pay that much, when you can piece together st205 front and rear brakes for far less than that brembo. You can still get a set of wilwood fronts for cheaper and k sport too. bolt pattern is right on, but unsure of the offsets.

ah yes I know. Id rather get the gt-4 brake combo. but it was just an option. Ridiculous how k sport and willwood only make big brake kits with 6 piston brake calipers for the front, and 4 piston calipers for the rear. and they only fit 17" rims but ya what is offset for stock gt-s celica
