Just wanted to know if any body knows a good place to get custom rotors. Im trying to put some evo calipers on my celica and the back caliper bolts right up to where the rear gt caliper is but i need a little bigger diameter rotor because the pad on the brembos hangs off the rotor a little
Evo brakes - 6G Celicas Forums
The 7th gen big brakes kits are suppose to bolt right onto our front.
I know the evo brakes are 320mm, and i think the celica big brakes are just a bit bigger than that. Maybe give those a try. Keep us updated.

Its Orville's Celica, i just drive it...
thanks for the info I was thinking I should probably go that route i need to find out if i can just get the rotors and bracket for the 7th gen from brembo, now i just have to do something with the back rotors
wait, so evo brembo calipers bolt right up to our back GT brakes- but our rotors back there need to be bigger?
get the gt-4's brakes!!!! they are huge and beautifull and very effective! and you wont have any proplem with the installation

yes the evo rear caliper bolts right up to the rear and work well the rotor could just be a little bigger because the pads hang off a little bit

GT-FOUR brakes -
Front 315mm with 4 pot calipers.
Rear - 315mm with 2 pot calipers.
Plus they have 'Celica' on them >

Only problem with that is, they sell for to much. I have seen a guy trying to sell a set of i think only front for $1200... way to much >

errm i dont see why they would considering how many of those things get brought over with clips?
ST205 brakes dont bolt up.

According to Xpander, the bracket spacing is correct and does match up to the macphearson knuckles, but they are threaded differently, and the knuckles don't come out far enough to fit a large rotor. I'm willing to bet it's the same deal with EVO calipers... Even if the calipers bolted up, the knuckle spacing won't come out far enough to fit a larger rotor.

that is the problem on the front, but i was thinking if i could get the adapter brackets and rotors from a 7th gen brembo big brake kit they might work, and as for gt4 brakes they are expensive and I already have the evo calipers. As I said the backs line up really well I just need to find a bigger diameter rotorso the ends of the pads don't hang off the rotor
