More than what it has stock.

In...your....opinion.

You are the one driving the Yarrari.

Since it can't move very fast, it better stop and handle exceptionally. I have to dodge those out of control SUVs somehow.

The initial bite on the OEM pads is pretty soft. Something like this that claims to be a bit more agressive would be nice. Keep in mind, you have to be careful with a car that doesn't have ABS. You will want to make sure you have better tires as well or you will find yourself locking a wheel every time you get on the brakes agressively. Tires are the biggest factor in how the car stops, not the brake pads.

[Dezod]

Tires mixed with a great pad are an excellent 60-0 combo. So please keep that in mind when seeking the most of your Yarrari. :rofl:

Good one largeorangefont! lol

Also there is an official thread in the vendor's section.

Classic. It's a inside joke with my gf. She hates the Yaris. So I changed the name to make it err, emm....'faster sounding.' She thinks it's lame I went from M3's and modded turbo GTI's to the Yaris.

Shoot, might as well go with a 375mm Stoptech BBK, why stop at just pads?

It definately doesn't need that, but there aren't many cars that wouldn't see a benefit from a basic pad upgrade and SS brake lines.

I think mine will.
You haven't heard my plans for a GT42R with 46 psi? Cobras and Supras will cower at the mighty YARRARI!

GL on spool up. NO2 here you come.

[Dezod]

Just got off the phone with my contact @ Yota and he said the xA/xB rotors are not an identical match. The OD & width of the two are identical, but the rotor's centerline is 3mm deeper inward than the xA/xB. So that is a no go!

I do have some more avenues to explore. Sit tight fellas.

[Dezod]

In luck!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I found blanks and can have them drilled or slotted from a company like StopTech or someone else. Let me get pricing.

[Dezod]

Looks like they are gonna be $210 for the pair slotted or drilled.

what is the temp range and braking coefficient for these pads?

["G"]

Never heard of them, who makes them ?

[Dezod]

FFC makes them. They are a newer company that makes parts specializing in high performance applications. These pads where developed for the use of the upcoming turbo system.

Here are some words from a Cobalt SS S/C owner:
"I put Dezods pads on my front last night along with my drilled and slotted rotors and all I can say is WOW! The brakes are alot more touchy and it doesn't take much for them to grab! Im really impreased with the breaking performance. Great job Dezod!"

"I am extreamly impreased with Dezods pads!"

That doesn't answer my question though in regards to braking coefficient and temp range. I'm not trying to be a dick, I'm just curious to see the full range of pads for the Yaris and what they actually do.

lol i love blunt people. i am blunt myself :-D
