Hi guys,
There have been a lot of threads about this however, mine is somehow unique so i wanted to create my own thread. I have an AE101 Corolla with a 3sge rev3 motor in it and converted to ST202 brakes. I recently purchased a complete ST205 superstrut front and rear brakes from a for dirt cheap and since this is my dream brake setup I'm willing to go through all the trouble just to fit it in. A couple of things I need to put out here is that I'm from the Philippines so sourcing bits and parts may be a bit hard. Just for background here's how my suspension are coupled with everything just bolt in (no modifications done): Front: - ST202 JDM spec McPherson single pot caliper and rotor, knuckle and AE101 balljoints and brake lines Rear: - ST202 JDM spec rear single pot caliper and rotor and brake lines I cannot get a hold of a Cadillac Catera 2002 rotor. It's just not available in our country. My questions: 1. To get the caliper bolted in, can i simply thread tap the knuckle and bolt it right in? 2. Will i need 3mm spacers? 3. Do i need to change brake lines? (If yes, that's fine as i would really like to get ss lines on them however, from what car? Now for the rear i have no idea. If anyone has links that can help me. I have saved Culpable04's posts so i have that for reference however, if anyone else has any more info that would be greatly appreciated! Thanks 6GC! |
