Big Brake Kit Discovery - Page 3 - Toyota Yaris Forums

I read threw a few of the posts that are not Seth's and didnt see this mentioned. This would mean you can use a brake kit made for a honda as a full BBK... right?

Anyone know if yaris and Echo brakes are the same?

OMG, I think I just had a minddumb after reading most of this stuff.

I;m looking for a BBK for my Corolla, as well as my friend is for his Yaris, who sent me this thread. I HAVE to chime into this.

I have nearly an IDENTICLE setup to this on my Camry. I've installed it on several other cars. Stock caliper, relocation bracket, Supra TT rotor.

It;s track tested. And by track tested, my friend has done road racing on his local track with it. 300whp Camry. Not one issue. Couple others in Cali, same thing. My car can outbrake many sports cars.

Not goign into the physics with it, as I see another member here did an amazing job at that already. :)

Here is a short video on performance rotors from Stop Tech and Power Slot rotors, who also have BBKs for most cars. I'm going to use their rotors on my '87 Celica GTS racecar, with slotted rotors up front and drilled at the rear. Because I'm going to be using calipers and rotors from a '95 Celica at the front, I'll already have a thicker and beefier rotor, so slotted will work just fine. The rear is a solid disk, so drilled will disapate heat and moisture much better!

Hate to revive but what relocation brackets do you use?
