    A bit of advice for you Steve... you gotta stop spamming the forums with these threads.
    If you keep it up, people will stop paying any attention to your comments / questions.
    Youve created two threads in here asking for the info, when a reply in the GT4 dedicated thread would have been enough.

    Anyway....

    A friend had JDM rear rotors on his ADM ST185.
    The pad was hanging off the side of the rotor by 5-10mm.
    So i very much doubt ADM rotors will fit on the rear.

    As for the fronts, look at the DBA online catalog.
    It has the sizes of the rotors listed.

    For the pads, go down to your local Repco, etc and compare your pads to the ADM ones they have.

    Pretty sure I posted the dimensions in the ST162 dedicated thread a few years ago, if you search it should come up. I'm pretty sure it's been discussed in the GT-4 dedicated thread too.

    The twin piston front brakes carried though from the ST165 and had the 'small' rotors. The ST162 front rotors are the same diameter but are smaller in thickness.

    The ST18# Series 2 update came with a larger rotor but with only a single piston calliper (which was shared with the ST184). IIRC all aussie spec ST185s came with this brake package, making the twin piston rotors are hard to come by...

    Yes, yes they are. When i had the twin pots the first set of pads/rotors i couldnt source the right rotors so just went with the 2mm(?) undersize till i could get the right ones.

    Get a set of ADM front and rear calipers. This way you'll get bigger brakes F and R and also make it easier to find brake components. It shouldnt set you back much. Get some braided lines while your at it

    fwiw: i had difficulty trying to locate ADM front rotors (DBA have NLA'd them, RDA didn't know who had stock). Am going skyline calipers for front - no idea about rear.

    ADM GT4 brake parts FYI

    Bendix brake pads
    Front: DB1181
    Rear: DB422
    You'll be able to cross-ref against those part numbers.

    DBA/RDA disks (plain rotors, no slots)
    Front: DBA741/RDA743
    Rear: DBA744

    Ahhh yeah! I remember being told that I had one of the last pairs of DBA741 slotted rotors when I put those brakes on my old celica... that would've been at least 4 or 5 years ago now?

    If you are using the JDM st165/early st185 twin pot callipers on the front, the ebc pad number is DP847. EBC don't make a green, red or yellow variant of these pads ie. they only make standard.

    If you are after an upgrade EBC pad, you can get the front pads of an 93-97 subaru impreza 1.8 to fit quite easily. Just order DP2819 for greenstuff, or DP4819R for yellowstuff. All you have to do in order for them to fit is remove a little material from the base of the pad backing plate. In this pic, the modified Subaru pad is on the top, standard subaru pad on bottom.



    And here is a pic of it fitted to an early st185 twin pot calliper, albeit on an AW11(in case anyone notices the four studs).



    And these are all the dimensions:
    DP847 dimensions 127*53*15 - standard ST165 JDM twin pot pad
    DP4819R dimensions 128*53*17 - subaru impreza 93-97 pad 1.8L

    Hope any of this helps.

    Hi,

    As mentioned, there is a dedicated thread for the GT4, where this request would be better suited.

    Thread closed.
