Upgrade Brake & Rotor??

[AlainMikli]

As I want to upgrade the breaks & rotors, I've search around internet but I didn't find any after market brand which available for yaris. Does anyone know is there any after market brand which has brake pads & rotors for yaris?

Or, does anyone know will the rotor & brake pads comparable with xA xB ??

thanks:bow::bow::bow:

i'm positive there are many rotors available elsewhere

I was at a motor show recently and there was a manufacturer from Thaland claiming to be an OE supplier to Toyota in Thailand. They had a 300++mm rotor upgrade for the Yaris / Vios while still using stock calipers. I think the cmpany was called RUNSTOP.

As for brake pads, here's a few from Hyper Rev for NCP91 chassis Yaris:

BRAND / MODEL operating temp in celsius

Wedsport Revspec

SC - 0-350
CC - 0-450
RC - 0-750

ACRE

Super Fighter 0-450
Light Sports 0-500
Formula Acre 0-800
Formula Titan 0-850

C-One (no temps listed)

SS
R

Delphi Lockheed

Type EX 0-350
Type SA 50-550
Type ZA 50-700
Type ZR 50-850

Project U

Type-NS 0-400
B-Spec 0-500
Type-NR 0-650
Type-HC+ 0-800
Level Max 900 0-950
Comp-B Gymkhana 0-450 (front) 0-400 (rear)
Racing 777 300-800 (full-race pads)
Racing 999 200-800 (full race pads)

As for complete BBK kits, both Wilwood and ENDLESS make 4-pot front brake kits (calipers, 2-piece rotors, SS lines and mounting brackets).

Sorry for the long post. These are of course from the Japanese Hyper Rev magazine. Back here we're used to special ordering these stuff straight from Japan. If you would like to special order parts directly, PM me, I can point you to an American based in Japan who takes care of special order parts, working in TRIAL Tuning.

Here are rotors available for the Yaris.

Endless 1-piece ventilated front rotor
C-One 1-piece ventilated and slotted rotors

The rest listed in Hyper Rev are for older, pre NCP91 chassis Yaris

There's been a review on these products in a thread here.

Cali Yaris has Carbotech pads for the yaris that are out of this world!

I'm running the XP8 compound on the front, and have done several trackdays with these pads, slotted rotors, and ATE Superblue DOT 4 fluid, and have never had any brake fade.

The XP8 pads have tons of bite, which only gets better as they get hotter!

The only downsides of this pad compound are more dust, and brake noise when the pads are cold.

www.microimageonline.com is the place to go for brakes!

^^ +1

I have the Carbotech 1521 bobcat pads and R1 drilled and slotted rotors and the difference was night and day in braking power AND they lasted longer than stock for me(and they are still good!)

[cali yaris]

I sell the R1 Concepts rotors and CarboTech pads (3 versions).

No complaints ever!

Just saw this one:
http://www.fastscions.com/scion-xa-xb-greddy-big-brake-kit-front-15015652.aspx

wonder if our hub/spindles are the same as XA/XB, anyone knows? If so, I'm ordering this one right now, haha.

[supmet]

^^ what size rims are you running?

edit: I think this is gonna be the first $40,000 yaris... :bellyroll:

[severous01]

anyone done research on the camry/corola rotor on the car? hey, GM decided to upgrade the brakes on the 98vs97 camaros and firebirds...and they bolt right on.

i'd like to know if anyone's done a comparison on the oem yaris knuckle vs an oem corolla/camry knuckle. if they're the same dimensions they''ll bolt right up and you can use oem bearings and oem calipers pads and rotors....and get a bigger rotor.

16X7 42mm offset right now. As long as they will fit on my knuckle, my rims should clear because my friend has a set on his AE86 under his 15" SSR.

Won't be 40k haha, not until my PE SC and custom widebody w/new paint job(I'm thinking about it still) plus all my other parts on my "to do" list.

He has that exact kit?

Not much of a BIG brake kit if it fits under 15s - and if it truly fits under 15s, I can guarantee you won't get 6 times the performance of the R1 concepts/carbotech combo. I'd be highly surprised if they were even 10% better - the brakes from garm are already almost TOO much braking power.

[eTiMaGo]

no such thing as too much braking power in my book :biggrin:

I honestly don't know if he has the EXACT same kit, but all I know is he had Greddy custom make the bridge/adaptor for that caliper for his car and Greddy only has one mini 6 pot I believe. Yup, I did fit under his 15X10 SSR.
Well, I think mini 6 pot will still have better braking power than our OEM caliper even with good pad and rotor combo because it does have more clamping force for the same size rotor if not bigger. My other friend replaced a set of AP racing caliper for his OEM brembo with the same stock size rotor, and it did give him better braking just because the AP has bigger piston in them and provide more clamping force too.

Plus more bling bling for me. :headbang:

cant got wrong with Carbotech...
