Toucan Posted March 28, 2008 Share Posted March 28, 2008 Can anyone tell me the size of their factory front disc brake? I ordered some from BNT an they have a 226mm disc listed for all KP starlets. Got my old one off and its closer to 202mm. Wondering if BNT has the listing wrong or if I have a different disc and caliper than what it came with from the factory. 226mm disc looks to have correct hat size and bolt spacing but theres no way my current caliper would bolt on over the extra diameter...

Snoozin Posted March 29, 2008 Share Posted March 29, 2008 Definitely around 202mm on mine as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Toucan Posted March 29, 2008 Author Share Posted March 29, 2008 Yea some searching on club-k revealed that kp's are always listed for 226 but are actually a 204 or thereabouts. Think wayne is going to work some magic for me instead now Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fuel Posted March 29, 2008 Share Posted March 29, 2008 can you use a pair of calipers from a KE70 or AE85 or similar? they may have the same mounting spacing and their discs are around that size too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Toucan Posted March 29, 2008 Author Share Posted March 29, 2008 Bah, already bought the stupid discs. Always forget to go through you, next time! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AE25 Posted March 29, 2008 Share Posted March 29, 2008 kp are 8" 200x10mm ish apparently some of the euro kp's have the 9" 226mm disk. ke70 wagon have the 226 disk so thats most likely what it is. but also ke70's have two different types of hub, the other later type ('85-'88ish) have no thread in the disk where it bolts to the hub as they bolt from the rear instead of the front of hub. (like ae85/te71). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DavidTheCreator Posted March 29, 2008 Share Posted March 29, 2008 just hit up your local toyota dealer to get the proper actual size of the disk. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
