320mm front rotors and rear disc conversion installed

[vten]

A friend which a toyota tech help me out with these :thumbsup:

sorry for the blurry phone pics , will update soon.

I really need the big front caliper from Garm ....:biggrin:

the fit and finish is awesome :thumbsup::thumbsup: thanks Garm :thumbsup::thumbsup:

[Brian]

Looks good. Reminds me I need to paint my rear calipers.

[vten]

while waiting for Garm to finish up the wilwood project ... I bought this :eyebulge:

flame suit on !!!

[cali yaris]

THAT LOOKS AWESOME.

as long as the Brembo's are made for the correct width rotor (~22mm for Yaris, I think), you are ok. If not, you're setting up a dangerous combination.

[vten]

it's not the real brembo caliper , Garm ....its the brembo caliper cover from thailand :redface: , but the material is fiberglass instead of a thin plastic that easily melts..

:thumbup:

[cali yaris]

oh. :frown:

I got the Wilwood calipers I'm going to use for the brake kit today, they look really nice.

[vten]

ooohhh shoot me a pics please ....dwitan@yahoo.com, it should work on my oversize rotor right ?

[cali yaris]

Yes the 4-pot caliper I got is the correct size for the 22mm rotor we use on regular AND large size rotors.

however, I still have to work out the bracket for it. I'll post some pics up on a new thread tomorrow. I was so excited I forgot to take pictures, LOL.

I also got some nice new 6-pot calipers for my tC :biggrin:

[vten]

ooohhh 6 pot ...I bet it cost a lot eh ?

very nice, I likes

Your car must stop on a dime now. Did it come with ABS?

[AlainMikli]

do you change your brake pad too:tongue:?

[Malaya1221]

will the rear disc conversion fit 15' wheel and r they the one from garm?

[vten]

I got everything from Garm, it's a great product and a stellar seller :w00t:.

still using the stock pads, since I'll be getting the wilwood caliper later on...


and I believe you can use 15" wheels, but im not sure.


seems like project yaris is not gonna be over just yet :evil:

[Kaotic Lazagna]

Nope, the rear disc conversion utilizes bigger rotors, right? If I remember correctly then, they must be used with 16 or 17's (most likely 17's).

[Brian]

The rear disc conversion has 285mm rotors

[vten]

took a picture off my camera phone today after work :biggrin:

[eTiMaGo]

looking good, makes those wheels look less empty :thumbsup:

Now just get some red paint for the front calipers!

[eTiMaGo]

will the rear disc conversion fit 15' wheel and r they the one from garm?

Manufacturer specification is that it should fit most 15" wheels.

[jronald]

Is the handbrake and ABS sensors working with this conversion?

[vten]

handbrake is working like oem, but not sure about abs, since mine doesn't come with one.

[Kaotic Lazagna]

Manufacturer specification is that it should fit most 15" wheels.

Ah, my bad. I thought they were also big brake rotors. hehe.

[cali yaris]

You don't have ABS on the rear, they are drum brakes.

[Gideon]

You don't have ABS on the rear, they are drum brakes.

You can have ABS on drum brakes.

Also my window sticker states "Four-Wheel ABS". :wink:

[Kaotic Lazagna]

Mine didn't come with ABS, but I was told by someone that the fronts have ABS while the rear don't for the Yarii that never came with ABS on the options.

[AlainMikli]

You can have ABS on drum brakes.

Also my window sticker states "Four-Wheel ABS". :wink:

Me too, 4 wheel ABS is a standard on 09.:biggrin:

[Brian]

I have ABS sensors on the rear.

[kngrsll]

did you do any braking tests before the brake changes? that would be nice data to have. I think the increased rear braking should decrease stopping distance.

[vten]

I didn't do any test before, but after the change, I can feel the brakes are more powerful...

[cali yaris]

I stand (sit) corrected. four-wheel ABS on our cars is kind of funny, but know I know we can have it.

[kngrsll]

I didn't do any test before, but after the change, I can feel the brakes are more powerful...

yeah, i understand. i just REALLY like data. gotta quantify that shit yo lol

[vten]

wilwood please :cry::cry:

[jonismyname]

let me know when the stoppie vid's are on youtube. stuntbikes beware...

[AdeJong 03]

looks clean. i didnt know brembo made brake covers??

how is that wilwood kit comin along garm?

[aucorium]

wow !!looks great , what front discs are those ?

[botchilah]

Ooh wet my pants again today (1st was seeing new 997 GT3 RS from Porsche hehehe)

Any idea how much the Wilwoods will go for?

Dang if only I wasn't gettimg the RS kit this week, I'd get the big front disc set-up.
