st185 gt4 single piston caliper onto aw11 conversion? Mon, 28 February 2005 09:15 Go to previous message
I have some st185 gt4 calipers which im going to bolt to my aw11. But im wondering if anyone has done this conversion and if so what dics they used.

Ive done a bit of measuring and test fitting to some spare hubs and and supercharged mr2 disks that i have lying around and have come up with this so far...

-the gt4 calipers will fit onto the mr2 hubs.

-They require a slightly larger disc of 278mm diameter by 25mm thickness.

-The calipers on the mr2 hubs should clear this size disc perfectly.

Also i have come up with a few questions.

-Will the increased diameter still allow me to use the 14" standard rims? (i think i might be able to just)

-If i was to use the gt4 disc and drilled holes for the mr2 stud patter would the slightly smaller (1mm smaller) height of the disc be a problem?

- I was thinking of running the gt4 caliper on the standard disc for a while. Although this would make the pad bite the top of the disc I have heard this can make for slightly better intial bite? (i dont really care if it affects the life of the disc or pad)

I know joshtix is attempting this conversion so any info would be appreciated.
