While it is important that Engineers advise whats best for safety, they do have to work within certain guidelines. He probably has a good reason for making the request he has and it may be to satisfy a legal requirement in your state. Ask him to explain the regulations to you if you doubt him.

If all he wants is rear discs, the setup from a RT141 corona will pretty much bolt on. do a search and all the tricks will be revealed. I would definitly look into a front upgrade to go with it though. The standard ones have been the undoing of many a nice celica. And if your paying for an engineers certificate for a brake upgrade it may as well be a good one.

Oh and just with the engineering, what made you think that we would know better than a paid professional??? If you doubt him ask for his reasons. In the end, it doesn't matter what we think cos we can't give you a certificate to say it's legal.
