Does the Celica 94 GT have a separate e-brake drum?

Nope.....its all disks. Ebrake uses the inside of the rear disks.
EDIT: I dont have much experience, but i think im right. This post has been edited by LatinKraze: Feb 17, 2004 - 1:35 PM |

Thanks for the quick response. I'm turning my car into a drift mobile. Even though it's FF setup, dont got enough for a FR car so this will have to do. Thanks again

the rear brakes are disc/drums, at list on the gt's. of course the disc is use for braking while driving and the drum is for the e-brake.

If you can get it where you take corners with the front end flicked towards the inside and the back end drifting out screeching, I'd say it's the closest thing our cars can get to drifting. Lots of fun, but be prepared to buy tires...mine were less than legal tread til I just bought some Falken rubber and I won't do nothing on the new tires, but someday I will find a cheap pair of 15 inch rim and throw those old tires on those and drift for fun everyonce in a while.

A "drift" is a condition of a car, when pushed beyond the tire's limit of adhesion, exhibits a lateral slip. |

"Drifting" is one's ability to maintain that. If you like sliding for one or two seconds at a time in dry weather (FF car)... go for it... but still... I'd hardly call it drifting... now grip... that's something else. This post has been edited by Kwanza26: Feb 19, 2004 - 2:43 AM -------------------- "It's ok to be naked girl... I'm an artist!"
