Andre, are you using the ST205 hub up front?

can the 205 hub be used or not?
i can imagine it's a pain trying to do the caliper brackets

so making a caliper bracket is that much of a pain, that its looking better to just mill down the rotor?

now i see how hard it would be to make brackets.
how much are you having the rotors milled down - how many mm was it again?
what size spacer are you going to use so the rotor will clear the lower ball joint?

I'm hoping to get the ST205 calipers front and rear that I got with my ST205 clip installed on my Alltrac Camry (the brakes bolt on in the same way as the Alltrac Celica).

'04 STi disks are pretty tempting, though the hub center is 57mm instead of 54.1 (or 55mm in the case of the ST205), which would require some sort of centering ring. I am reasonably sure Stoptech (and others) have a 54.1mm center bore, 5x100 hat for a large disk (like the Stoptech 332mmx32mm). Overall brake balance could be fixed by just running slightly more aggressive pad in the rear. The only downside is initial cost, as replacement disks should be cheaper than full stock STi or ST205 disks.etantshi":s5bzkcfu said:phattyduck":s5bzkcfu said:Do you think moving up to a Stoptech 332mmx32mm disk would give you sufficient extra room for a bracket?

I think you do do it with a 324mm disc. This is an option if you wanna use rex rotors. That should give you enough room to run some fasteners through a bracket without hitting the ear of the caliper. In essence, something similar to what 'john the revelator' did with his setup. A 332 disc would more than likely allow you to run the calipers 'straight up' in the stock location with a bracket.
