Hey 6gc,

I wanted to know what else I should do with the new brakes I got. I got some Brembo Blanks in the front and rear and the ebc redstuff brake pads all around, SS brakelines, and I'm going to paint the calipers. I'm waiting on the rear rotors because they are on back order, but in the meantime what should I get? new pins or other parts? I was originally going to do the st205 brakes, but I gave up on the idea and just went with this. I've never replaced my brakes before, so any advice or suggestions will be greatly appreciated.

mr2 turbo front calipers! they're a dual piston and will change the braking bias from a 71f & 29r to about a 65f & 35r which will even the braking out a tad bit more!

no I would not recommend mr2 twin piston calipers. for one that have smaller surface area than gt brakes and second they are biased for a mid engine vehicle (probably not as important on the street, anyhow but would be more of a visual mod than performance upgrade). the twin piston celica calipers really are as hard to acquire as most make it out to be. Most companies just don't put them on up for sale because they think celica owners have no interest in them.
