EBAY BIG BRAKE AUCTION

[NEVERSTOP]

hate to break it to you but the gt rotors are pretty much the same size.. the fronts are 12 inches compared to the 12.4 shown there and the rears are around 11 inches

[Neipas09]

Yea but do the calipers come with awesome CELICA logos on them?

the four piston calipers work alot better than the stock ones

actually, they won't, because the gt4 master cylinder is way bigger than the st or gt master cylinder. you won't be able to get much more out of the brakes than what you get out of your current ones. and i have to disagree about the size difference. they are not 12 inches in the front. 12 inch rotors would not fit under 15" wheels.

Charlie is so smart with all with math calculations and all

the brake master on the gt and the st-205 is the same unless the usdm gt
is different to the jdm gt. also the rotors are that big because nothing smaller than 16" rims will fit the st-205 and the rims must be +45 offset or else they will touch the calipers. the conversion can work, you have make brackets to push the calipers up to make way for the larger rotors, also u have to nut and bolt for the calipers as inside the holes are not threaded like the gt calipers. your only problem might be getting brake pads, i am not sure what other toyota vehicle uses them but i think it's one of the suv's maybe the land cruiser.

dude, think it is +35 offset not 45. maybe the max that they can be is 45. if that is what you mean then nevermind

I like the look of the cross drilled and slotted better myself.

i have done the swap and i had to use the st-205 original rims which are 45 offset, i had 38 offset 18" chome wheels before and they could'nt clear the calipers, so these are the facts.

[Neipas09]

So are you saying that 45 or 38 worked?

[1900]

only 45 will work
