This is my first post... just got these in last week - Installed them Yesterday, let me know what you guys think...

 

where is my magnifying glass?

 

you might wanna make these a tad bit bigger. lol

 

This might be a better pic...

 

last one is a bit dark.. it was late last night when i finished, Ill take some more pics today.. nice sunny day in AZ today..

 

WOW!! those look sweet.. nice drop too by the way.

 

Do they throw the wheels out more? Are they the same size? Not Big wise. but width wise.

 

Wow, what happened to your rim and tire? (Approx. 10 o'clock)

 

What is the diameter? Also, how many pistons in the caliper?

 

looks like the same rotor size with just a bigger caliper....

 

My wheel.. oh yeah.. downtown Phoenix right now is a mess.. killed my rim.. Getting some new rims in a few weeks so Im not that mad... The kit keeps the same rotor with.. so the rim isnt pushed out at all. The clearence with the factory rim is tight.. but I didnt need to get spacer. The Diameter is 295 cm approx 12.5" and its a 4 piston caliper.

 

very nice, price?

 

Did you notice any difference when braking?

 

brakes before tires FTL

wouldnt have been my choice in brakes or my first upgrade, but they look good.

any reason you chose these over the competition?

 

Price was at a discounted price knowing the owners of TOKYOSPEEDPROS.com a shop here in AZ. They helped me get this Metalic blue color which is not an optional color for the Rotora BBK. At least not for Tc and Celica applications. Check out their site and shoot them an email, they are an awsome shop with knowledgeable staff. The braking is similar to stock when braking at slow speeds. When you really hit the brakes hard, which I had to do today on the Highway, WOW!!! The car stops considerably faster. Of course I still need a good sticky ruber like blackonblacktc pointed out, but Im waiting for some ADVAN RS to arrive and I have the AVS ES100 rubber waiting for them here at home. So Im sure braking distance will improve significantly again when I install these ties.

 

will you be tracking the car, or is this your dd?

you would be suprised how well the stock brakes with good brake pads will work.

 

both My DD and track but as soon as I get my mr2 turbo running AGAIN..lol.. it will be my DD/show car if you will. The main reason I went BBK is im going turbo in the near future, stock brakes are great for stock power but not for an Upgraded vehicle IMO.

 

Well a BBK won't let you stop faster. Locked brakes are locked brakes... you'll only kick in the ABS either way. Better tires are what reduces stopping distance.

BBK give you more heat capacity on the track before your system begin to fade... however, from what I hear, you have to be pretty hardcore about the track thing to overwhelm the stock system to levels where a BBK is needed.

However, at any rate, it does look good, no doubt about that.

 

The stock brake is still great, its almost like the racing brakes because it has ABS and EBD system in it which I learned it from Toyota classes. Only 2007 Tundra and Scion tC has ABS and EBD (I think) brake system which stopped the car real quick and hard.

Feel free to correct me if I'm wrong.

 

Looks like stock size... just sloted and drilled with new calipers...
