Just wondering if stock 86 calipers will fit onto an ae71?

don't think so. I put ae86 struts with brakes and all into my ae71. the only other part i needed was an ae86 steering arm.

I have to ask though why do you want to swap them?

Its not really much of an upgrade unless you going to the JDM calipers which take a vented rotor.

You would probably see more of an improvement from spending the money on new dot4/5 fluid and some good pads.

 

The bonus of of using the ae86 struts is you can get decent shocks to suit them unlike the ae71 struts. And there is a whole bunch of tried and tested brake upgrades for them also

Its not thati wanna upgrade. I have ceazed callipers and can get my hands on cheap 86 calipers i just wanted to know if they fit or not. Kinda urgent too because i wanna make driftprac this weekend. Cheers for that man

ah bugger i can see the rush then. if you can get the strut and steering arm of the ae86 as well then definitely do that. otherwise I have heard that t18 struts will work but you would probably need the steering arm as well.
