I made this thread basically for archival purposes. I have a 95 Celica ST and installed 92 GTS rear disk brakes on it. They work fine... just be sure to adjust the E-brake before you install the rotors.

[right][snapback]231339[/snapback][/right] There isn't much "tuning" needed. The rear discs should stop as normally as did the rear drums. The proportioning valves seems to be the same between the ST drums and GT discs. The differences in pressure may be related to the brake lines, which the ST drums use small metal lines and the GT calipers use typical rubber lines. Also, the rear never brakes more than the front in normal situations. -------------------- "It's ok to be naked girl... I'm an artist!"
