matt86sx Regular Location: Gold Coast, QLD Registered: April 2004	Re: Smashed_Wombat's ST162 SX - Gen 3 Swap In Progress Thu, 26 May 2005 01:18 Hey Andy, Yeah we may need to have the car inspected to confirm an engine no change in QLD too, not sure as I have never done it before. I didn't pick the ST202 brakes off the half cut, they didn't look in very good condition to me, and I figured I could always buy them later if I wanted to. As far as I can tell, the ST202 calipers are single piston. I never actually put my head behind to check so I'm not entirely sure. I took a couple of photos of ST202 brakes (from a different half cut I inspected a few months ago): These ST202 calipers don't appear to be the same as the ST185 single piston calipers either, after comparing pics of both. I'm not sure yet which way I'm going to go with brakes, I'm doing a bit of research on that at the moment. Ther is a good article on Celica brakes on this site: www.gtfours.co.uk, (go to Modifications > 165 > Brakes in the menu.) It seems to indicate that the twin piston brakes on the ST185 were initially the same as those on the ST165, and that the ST185 was later upgraded to the single piston ones along with larger discs (and therefore greater swept area leading to better braking), and Aus spec 185's were fitted with these. According to the DBA catalogue, the ST162 (and ST165, I would assume) disc is 258mm in diameter, and the ST185 (Aus-spec, fitted with the single piston caliper) is 278mm. The ST204 discs (assuming the same as 202) are 275mm so they are different again. So if you want to keep the ST162 discs the only upgrade option is the 165/185 twin piston caliper, which of course will be an improvement in itself. If you use either the ST185 single piston or ST202 calipers, you'd need to grab the discs to go with them since they would seem to be too big for the standard 162 disc. I'm thinking of getting DBA rotors when I upgrade mine so that opens my options - just get the appropriate DBA disc for whichever calipers I decide to go for. Well that's a summary of my research so far anyway! -Matt [Report message to a moderator]
