ST205 Celica 4pot Brakes

[lastminuteaudio]

anyone have any experience installing these on vehicles such as corolla/tercel & the overall difference in performance, modification required etc. as pictured below


i've already figured out i need a spacer between the hub & rotor, the rotor is 315mm stock & need to be machined to 300mm for the caliper to bolt on my spindle & it has to be redrilled for 4*100. what i'm interested in finding out is pedal feel with the stock master cylinder or if i shud upgrade this, if so, what bore cylinder should i look for.

What size is your stock master cylinder?

[lastminuteaudio]

i beleive its 7/8....the celica's came with 15/16

[gt4tified]

You shouldn't really have issues there, as long as your booster could keep up too!

[lastminuteaudio]

lol. thanks...will find out once it up weekend..

[gt4tified]

Cool, but are u absolutely sure you want that setup....honestly I think that's overkill given the work involved and the addition to unsprung weight, but lemme know if u get thru.

[lastminuteaudio]

well i find its a bit of overkill too, there were easier options available but i wanted the biggest i could get so i kno i will stop & there's the appearance factor too. lol . i dont mind the work, its fairly simple, not brackets required, jus a lil bit of machine shop work...my only concern is the wheels locking up wen i dip for brakes... the only thing heavier than the stock setup are the rotors. the calipers are actually lighter as they are aluminum. check out the link...guys did this setup on st185's. its almost similar to what i'm doin, jus on a lighter car...

nice upgrade man......buh wat i wa ask is if yuh machine d rotors from 315mm to 300mm....dais alot.....would heat affect them......

[lastminuteaudio]

thats in the overall Outside diameter, not the thickness. its been done all over without any problems...and the disk pad still covers the entire surface area...the rotor are very beefy compared to stock...

hey man i'm intrested in this, but tell me somting i hav a AE 101 corolla cud it fit on it

[lastminuteaudio]

yeah it shud be the same line up but u gonna hav to spend some time at the machine shop to get everythin workin..

[outrider]

fuh real.......bess bet for d AE101.....get some levin spindles....

[lastminuteaudio]

yeah levin twin piston off the super strut suspension shud be less work...the setup i did requires u change the master cyclinder an booster on my vehicle but i feel with the corolla they shud be good enough

[outrider]

yep....but i tink for the super strut suspension u hadda get the subframe, shocks....i saw dis recently
