my black celica has had some front brake problems for awhile now, I got some new brakes from the wreckers but when it came to putting them on, they are totally different to the brakes that are currently on there. The brakes from the wreckers are the same as the ones on my silver celica, hence me thinking that my black one has different front brakes put on them,
here are some snaps I took
here's the problem with these brakes, the piston on the rhs won't go back into the bore

If you want to keep those eyesores, can you say "Perth Brake Parts" and "rebuild kit" in the same sentance? They will find a kit to match up anything, but personally I know of a few Simms bins that would appreciate those brakes!!!

I know they look abit dodge, but when they are working properly, they had an excellent pedal feel and pulled the car up really, really well. I'm not sure about perth brake parts, cause they didn't have a rebuild kit for ra23, no-one did, said they weren't being made anymore. But by comparing these brakes to the ones I got from the wreckers and the ones on my other 23, I don't think they are ra23 brakes, unless the older ones had different brakes to the newer 23's?

i think they may be of some form of car. 
Are there any code or numbers any where on it?
Try quick stop brake/clutch centre in balcatta
they got me new disc rotors for $75 for the pair!
they will do your hole brakes for like 80 pads seals/machining the discs i'll get the number if you want.

if you could that would be awesome. I'll just have to borrow a trailer off a mate cause obviously it can't go with the brakes as they are  I can't wait to get back behind it, I've missed my manual so badly

they kinda look like RA6x front brakes? tho i thought RA6x were vented disks?
will have to find my haynes manual and read up...
it says it covers RA2x to RA6x ... but as the wiring diagrams in them were probably drawn up by some bored, stoned guy in the Haynes art dep't, it's possible that the brakes info are a product of the same dudes deranged mind?

The brakes look nothing like the ones in the Haynes manual. They are much smaller then the ra2x and the ra4x or ra6x, not sure, ones that they have images of in there
