Hi, did a quick search and found plenty of brake upgrade topics but couldn't find what diameter discs I need for the front of my st185. When I built the car I had some JDM brakes and some smaller UK abs model brakes. I had to fit the smaller 2 pot calipers and discs due to condition and I am now trying to buy new discs for them. They are in a bad state and measure about 255mm diam.what size (when new) do I need to get. So far I can only find 275mm discs are they the larger JDM ones or have mine really worn that much?

Thanks in advance!

Early (pre August 1991) JDM ST185 with twin pot floating caliper use the same front disc and caliper as the ST165: 25mm x 255mm.

The UK and late spec JDM ST185 & ST182 with the single pot floating caliper use the 25mm x 277mm front discs.

Thank you. That's answered all my questions I've come up with from trying to source the right ones.
