Thanx!The car is so light it doesn't take much to slow it down. Get some carbon metalic pads,braided stainless lines,and some wider tires to get more contact patch. Drilled/slotted rotors wouldn't hurt,but you lose surface area,those and the carbon metalics work idealy when the brakes are hot,and not as well when cold. Thats my .02

A good break is hard to find.

I'm installing the Dezod pads with R1 Concept rotors this week -- I'll let you know, with pics. Stainless lines will help response and feel a LOT too.

Yea im iffy on the whole R1 rotors....I tried them and wasn't happy, a little noisy.... The added brake "performance" you got from the rotors didnt make up for the noise. The pads by themself are awesome, and I definately want some steel brake lines.

You put the R1's on a Yaris? I haven't heard anything about noise issues, that's good to know.

Dezod sells rotors to go with their pads, you know.

The first step to better braking is a good set of tires. Brakes dont stop the car, the tires do. So get a set of good tires before u do anything.
Since you said you are tracking the car, I would suggest some good brake fluids to reduce fade and stainless brakelines to improve brake feel.
Its better to have a set of pads for the track and another set for the street. But if thats not possible, something like hp+ will be a big improvement over stock. prepare for lots of noise and dusts!!!!
Waste your stock rotors before getting now one...hehe....
Not really necessary to purchase a big brake kit.....
