We have yet to warp a brake rotor on the Yaris, and we beat the snot out of them. I suspect you are more likely seeing pad deposits on the rotor, which give the same feeling. Try a different pad next time. Maybe Hawk ceramic for street use, or HPS.

OP will take CoryM's advice but he will never get credit for the good deed. If OP doesn't, all of his Japanese OE brakes will meet the same fate.

Imported air filters. Ha.

funny enough i got it off ebay, before the seller (elady01) started rising the costs of shipping by double for the axle. You'll see the axles every now and then.









the bite is definately there, and very consistant. I cant say about how the car handles during extreme braking because my car is much much stiffer than stock (aka i dont dip during extreme braking)..I can tell you it has saved the car MANY times since i live where the traffic is rated one of the worse in the country, with one of the worst drivers (rich people that accel hard and brake harder)
