Brake rotors difference? - 6G Celicas Forums

Topic #40064 6 posts Started by Dub
Hi there,

have a similar problem as the guy before me, have ordered rotors for my 3SGE 2.0 from US, and when installing found out the rotors are smaller than stock ones. Actually the diameter is smaller, also thickness is different to the ones on my 2.0. They are a bit thinner.

Do you know exact sizes of brake rotors for 1.8 and EU/JAP 2.0, so I can exactly measure them and say, they fit EU 1.8 models too ? Cause i'm just guessing they'd fit the 1.8.

Here the rotors i bought

Appreciate any help. Thanks..

I don't know which one is bigger, thinner or anything... What I know is there were four types of front brake rotors:

1# 43512-20580
JDM 3SFE SS-I, Euro/US 7AFE ST
2# 43512-20590
Euro 3SGE GT, JDM 3SGE SS-II, JDM 3SGE vvt-i SS-III
3# 43512-20600
US 5SFE GT
4# 43512-20610
JDM/Euro 3SGTE GT-four

...and because those new rotors of yours are for ST models (it's written on that page), I belive that shoud be number one brake rotor (that means they are Euro/US ST and Japan SS-I aftermarket product)...

What I should do more is measure my Euro ST front rotors for you lately today...

No more replicas... This is evolution... This isSS-four:)________[Featured Celica of 6gc.net @ 2010]_________
EU GT Rotors : 275MM
EU Superstrut: 285MM (Not completly sure)
EU ST Rotors: 255MM

Thickness is the same of all the three.
