After dropping the idea of using ST205 calipers on a McPherson suspension i searched for radial-mount calipers and found some from Porsche that where perfect, they come from a 996 Turbo/GT3.
I use them with stock Toyota brake discs for the ST205. ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() |

All Celicas in Germany got ABS and disc brakes in the rear, even the ST
![]() We had to put the calipers with the bleed screws this way, on the 996 Porsche the calipers are on the other side of the steering knuckle and they got 2 different pistons sizes. There's only one direction you can install calipers like that without sacrificing some performance. On my first pic you can see that the left piston is smaller then the right one, the brake disc should always first pass the smaller piston and then the bigger for best performance and wear. It's not easy to bleed them now but... how often do i have to bleed my calipers.. ![]() Maybe i will just swap the screws and the brake line, but i will have to get a custom line made for this.
