I was wondering if the ST165 Brakes will work for our cars that have the drum assembley.
Reason asked is because theres one sitting at the junkyard next to my house. I've searched but can't seem to come up with the answer of what I need to do the job right and the parts that I would need to convert it if it actually doesn't even bolt up.

Anyone done this and have any exps?

I'm not certain the ST165 (AWD version right?) rears will work or not because the rear spindle is slightly different on account of the rear-drive. I do know that the FWD GTS models (ST162) rear calipers DO work on the 6gc GT spindle, so I imagine the rear spindles can work since they both use a VERY VERY similar multi-link rear setup. To be safe, I'd say look for a 5th gen... since those are pretty common also... but I would bet that the 4th gens will work.
