rolledup Posted February 2, 2010 Report Share Posted February 2, 2010 Just wondering if stock 86 calipers will fit onto an ae71? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cerby Posted February 2, 2010 Report Share Posted February 2, 2010 (edited) 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 Edited February 2, 2010 by cerby Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cerby Posted February 3, 2010 Report Share Posted February 3, 2010 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.
