hes talking out his bum .. he needs slapping , in teh heads
St185 group A ones are either single piston 285 ish MM rotor, or twin piston
St205 - 315mm - 4 piston - a bit heavier but heaps stronger ..
Ill tell you how they operate back to back in about 3 weeks when i get my gt4 back ..
They wont be as good as say a 325mm setup like whats on justens Gt8 - he uses better calipers - but that setyup should perform quite a bit better than the stock 185 items

Stuart are you keeping the rotors 315mm?
If so I'd like to see some pics of the caliper brackets you'll be using.

it will be interesting to see how its done - hes told me they havent been machined down and do fit - which seems odd - ill try and get details if i can
