Brake upgrades - Toyota Yaris Forums

Getting the rear torsion beam from a JDM Vits is like saying "hey, lets swap an LT1 into the Yaris." Its never going to happen, so forget about it.

Shouldn't SS brake lines be a relatively easy part to make yourself? Braided line and some fittings at either end? Am I oversimplifying this?

Yes. An SS brakeline is not just the SS part. The braided SS is just a coating to keep the actual line inside protected and reinforced. Your life depends on the integrity of these lines. They aren't something you can buy in bulk, cut to length and add proper ends to.
