So whats the difference between the GT and ST front brakes?

I see the hub and knuckle are the same, but the caliper and rotors are not. Slight size increase for the GT?

The actual contact surface on the pads and rotors are about the same. The caliper pistons are about the same. The only major difference is the diameter of the rotor. I'd say overall... it's mostly for looks...
