THAT LOOKS AWESOME.
as long as the Brembo's are made for the correct width rotor (~22mm for Yaris, I think), you are ok. If not, you're setting up a dangerous combination.

it's not the real brembo caliper , Garm ....its the brembo caliper cover from thailand , but the material is fiberglass instead of a thin plastic that easily melts..

Yes the 4-pot caliper I got is the correct size for the 22mm rotor we use on regular AND large size rotors.
however, I still have to work out the bracket for it. I'll post some pics up on a new thread tomorrow. I was so excited I forgot to take pictures, LOL. I also got some nice new 6-pot calipers for my tC

Your car must stop on a dime now. Did it come with ABS?

I got everything from Garm, it's a great product and a stellar seller .
still using the stock pads, since I'll be getting the wilwood caliper later on... and I believe you can use 15" wheels, but im not sure. seems like project yaris is not gonna be over just yet |

Nope, the rear disc conversion utilizes bigger rotors, right? If I remember correctly then, they must be used with 16 or 17's (most likely 17's).

Now just get some red paint for the front calipers!
