Ive seen tC's with StopTech, Rotora etc..but where the heck are you guys finding them? Rotora and Stoptech both dont have Scion on their applications page. Am I to assume anything for the celica (last gen) will work?

When I was searching for rotors, I found this place to be the cheapest for Rotoras...

vividracing.com (http://www.vividracing.com/catalog/index.php/cPath/4238_5047/gclid/CLjw_5yMkY4CFQNBYAodBDE71w/ref/331/class_8/1573/my_type_id/8/class_9/1829)

As far as StopTechs, here's link for a complete set-up...

trdsparks.com (http://trdsparks.com/displayparts.php?Mdl_dtl=474&Part_cat=11&parts_id=1142)

I ended up going with rotorpros.com (http://rotorpros.com/) rotors and Axxis Ultimate Pads from vivid racing. I like the fact you can have the rotors painted to match your car. These are just options unless you want a fancy BBK. :P

StopTech used to directly offer BBK for the Celica and tC until TRD bought the exclusive rights a few month ago. StopTech BBK are no longer available, and most websites haven't updated their products to reflect that.

you can try contacting Stoptech directly to see what options you have.

hmm.. since when did they not have Scions in their applications? it's been awhile since i checked, but I've always seen something there... if not at the least brake pads you can get...

They still offer pads, rotors, and the Stage kits, but when I spoke to them directly they said they can no longer sale the BBK or components for the Celica/Matrix/tC. You have to buy the BBK from TRD now. :(

So no one can sell big brake kits for the tC now except trd? Thats kind of weak. Or is it just that Stop Tech sold the technology?

No, only StopTech can't sell their BBK directly, it is now a licensed TRD product. Rotora, Wilwood, Brembo, etc. are still allowed to sell their kits.
