Post by rexer200 »

I've searched but nothing..
Does anyone know if Corolla TSport front brakes (discs and callipers) will bolt to a Mk1?

Disks are bigger - 275x25 - compared to the 1a 243x18 and 1b 258x22 ones. Given that I guess you'll need at least 15" wheels to go over them.

No idea about the caliper bracket compatibility though

The brakes on my Corola T Sport are crap, so I wouldn't bother to be honest! You'd be better off looking at the usual Celcica brake upgrades... or just give you mk1 brakes a refurb with some decent pads.
If you can't see the angle, you're in trouble.

I can get hold of these brakes for free and at 275mm dia discs they should have more power then the Mk1b brakes.

if they are free then get them and see if they fit. i doubt anyone else will have tried it yet, so the only way to be sure is to try it out for yourself.
