I would be interested down the road but until I get FI my Yaris isn't fast enough to necessitate larger brakes

1) There isn't much power gained. 2) I can lock up the Yaris's tires, stock, and the slightly better Kumhos I'm running right now. 3) Unless you're tracking, you shouldn't need to worry about heat dissipation. Even then, it really isn't TOO big a deal with a teeny car. Correct me if I'm wrong. |

Very true, but some people might want it for the "cool factor" alone.

I agree - The fronts would be for 'cool factor' for sure, I don't think there would be any performance gain just by increasing the size of the rotors.
The rear disc conversion is a different story, as it moves the proportioning to the rear -- and it's pretty cool to have discs all around anyway.

Yeah i think upgrading drum to disk brake in the back and switching to SS lines would be more than sufficient for anyone.
