  1. omex wiring diagrams

    Distributorless Systems - Use the tachometer output from the ECU, or one of the coil

    negative connections. For dual coil vehicles ALWAYS set the number of cylinders to two.

    RED WIRE Connect this to the coil positive (+) terminal. If this is not easily accessible

    then this wire can be connected to any positive feed that is switched by

    the ignition switch.

    told ya ;) :lol:

    Thanks very much mate, Would you know the pin-out number by any chance if its no trouble, Thanks

  2. Awesome, so I'm guessing brake lines were unchanged, what did you do about pads?

    Are these really powerful then? I'd love 4 pots but as a student they're way out of my price range

    I've put braided lines on with the discs etc ( HEL £55 brakelines.co.uk) But if your sticking with the standard hoses thats fine they just bolt straight on (same banjo bolt) as gt4. Pads i've just stuck the standard celica ones on for now.

    As for powerful tbh there alot better than standard but i was expecting better, I'm now going to look at getting rid of the abs as i think this maybe limiting the performance.

    No brake fade whatsoever, Thanks mate

  3. Nice guide here! :p

    Did you need anything else to fit the kit? Do the calipers and carriers simply bolt on with no modification?

    Did you fit the spacer behind the brake disc?

    Hi Amjad, No mate, Just get the discs machined and everything just bolts up as if they were normal glanza discs and calipers. Spacer goes on the outside of the disc, tried my mates wheels on and i didnt even need the spacer, Thanks mate

  4. Rite wer to start the st 185 set up does it have to be the celica gt4 or car it be some of the other celicas spose the fwd ones or would the toyota camray ones be the same can anyone be dead specific in tellin me wat car i need to go and get my brake set up off. it would be a lot of help cheers

    You need calipers and carriers off a st185 gt4 if your going single piston and 280mm disc, If your going twin piston go for the st182 or the earlier gt4...http://www.ukstarletclub.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=40506

    Ok then, This is my first attempt so if it goes wrong plz dont get on at me. I've decided to go the gt4 route mainly because of cost but to be honest when i done it after the the st182 twin pots i decided to buy all new because it was stayin on, As you all know standard brakes are rubbish, Twin pots abit better, This set up much, Much better.

    Firstly get some astra cdti discs, There are 2 types one with a 70mm hole but get the one with the 60mm hole its almost a perfect fit. Take the discs to a machine shop and get them to take 1.5mm off the inside where it mates to the hub and 2.5mm off the outside diameter so it ends up 278mm

    Stick your caliper on, Quick bleed and away you go...Happy days

    Heres the difference in the caliper carriers as well

    See how bigger the gt4 on the right is, I'd just like to say depending on which wheel you are using, I had to shave a little off the front of the caliper carrier and fit a 3mm spacer in £10 off e-bay for 4. The wheels i am getting there is no need for the spacer.

    discs........£66

    calipers....£100

    machine...£20........£186...Best money i've spent on the car

    Second hand discs and calipers you'll be grinning all day
