srankin90 Posted January 8, 2013 Share Posted January 8, 2013 just wondering if anyone has done it on here and what is needed? i already have the calipers so i may as well use them and will be running 16" wheels anyway Quote Link to post Share on other sites
turbo Grant Posted January 8, 2013 Share Posted January 8, 2013 Do they fit up with the hubs ok? Should just need some spacers and discs to suit then Quote Link to post Share on other sites
srankin90 Posted January 9, 2013 Author Share Posted January 9, 2013 was doing abit of research on it there. www.ukstarletclub.com/ST205_brake_conversion.swfIt says on here that you can use st205 discs but you have to drill them out 4x100 and you have to mill it from 315mm to 300mm. but would this work well as the pad wouldnt be in full contact with the disc then Quote Link to post Share on other sites
morgey Posted January 9, 2013 Share Posted January 9, 2013 (edited) I had machined down 256mm discs on my uk spec to 238mm and this meant the inside pad had about 5mm floating, the floating bit broke off eventually but never caused any other damage.

turbo Grant Posted January 9, 2013 Share Posted January 9, 2013 The pads should fit as the discs are made smaller to make up for the calliper sitting 15mm closer to the centre point Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Ricksta Posted January 31, 2013 Share Posted January 31, 2013 Its a lot of hassle getting the st205 calipers to fit properly on the other celicas, even of the same year.Tends to work out not worth the hassle and cheaper to just buy a BBKso id be supprised if they fit on a starlet to be honest Quote Link to post Share on other sites
