i had some rear disc brakes lying around (unsure what they are maybe later model celica??), i tried fitting them to a spare diff i had and well, they fit  , my question is whats involved in putting these on properly , my guess is u need a brake booster that suits, new lines that suit the setup, and engeneers certificate???cheers

Engineers certificate definately. Axle bearing retainer plate may have to be changed, source new brake lines and brake pipe to suit. The TA22 Master and booster should be fine, however you may like to swap it for an RA23/28 unit. The brake bias can be sorted by cutting 2 coils from the spring in the bottom of the brake fluid distribution block. (mounted on the firewall). My son and I have used Corona Avanti rear discs on a TA22 and an RA23, the only other thing other than what has been mentioned, is that we had to move the shocky mount on the diff housing inboard by 25mm.

i'll look into it a bit more , how much did your engineers certificate cost? and was the reason you had to move the shock mounts in 25mm the fact the handbrake cable tentioner was scraping against it? i have a feeling mine are corona avanti discs too
