ST Brakes Options

[rickstast]

hello
I was just wondering which would be a better option.
Getting uprated discs and pads for the standard ST calipers,
or changing to GT calipers using standard discs and pads?
Any info much appreciated.
thankyou

I don't think you can change the fronts to GT brakes and calipers, but you can swap the rear drum brakes for the rear GT disc brakes and that will give you better overall braking.

I wonder why this misinformation has been passing around here lately? GT calipers WILL WORK (I'm running them myself). Unless of course if by 'caliper' you're not including the bracket... which you SHOULD include everytime you say 'caliper'... then no, the GT calipers piston assembly (minus bracket) won't fit on the ST caliper brackets, but the FULL GT calipers and bracket will swap over and bolt-on.
