What year corolla....

Has the 4 wheel disc brakes? I know it's a FX16, seems like somewhere between 87 and 88. Just wanted to confirm the year. I'm trying to find one to take the rear brake setup and ebrake setup off of to do a conversion on my celica.

Thanks
Talitha

So all the 87-88 GTS, GT and GTI have disc brakes. I was told to get the FX16 rear setup because it basically bolts in to replace our drum brakes. Is the FX16 the same as the GT, etc.?

FX16 is AFAIK the hatchback version of the GTi. Well most corollas rear disk swap is a piece of cake, for FWD rollas that is...

Do a search for brake conversion on the 4th gen forum on there. His handle is Turbotrdcelica.
