1998-2001 corolla brake swap question

I have a questions for you guys. Has anyone done a corolla to celica brake swap. I am wanting to know if the 2000-2005 celica gt or gts brake caliper will bolt on to the corolla. Has anyone done any kind of brake upgrade to their 1998-2001 corolla.

Also has anyone done rear disc conversions to their 1998 to 2001 corolla. What parts did you use? Let me know people. Thanks

Rear disk (and 5-lug) conversion on a '98 with a 2ZZGE swap:



I'm putting some rear sick conversions together shortly, email me for more details.

Not Corolla to celica swap, did corolla to corolla swap

I gots the 1.6 hatch 97 corolla, one year out of your criteria lol, sorry. (small front discs, rear drums)

Went to wreckers, found a 97 corolla RV (the same hatch, but 1.8 engine).

Bought the whole rear braking system on it. Bolted straight on to my car, and made a fair bit of difference. Then bought the front brakes and installed them as well, made a world of difference...and it was cheap too and no conversion hassles etc.

Weird because i would've thought the RV's front discs would've been the same as the 1.6...but it wasn't.
