did anyone buy a loaded calipar set for the rears? or did everone go to the junk yard? i am curious, because for my nissan, i can do an oem upgrade and if i get a loaded set it comes with everything i need except rotor... brackets and all... i know for the celica well be short the GT brake cables but for about 110 minus the cores ill have a HUGE difference on my nissan...just curious if anyone tried this route...

It wasn't me that was going to offer a kit.
I definitely wouldn't get anything that included pads. Its bad to mix and match pads without knowing what you're doing and anything used you get will undoubtedly be crap. Remanufactured calipers should be readily available and will come with the hangers. The bad part is that you'll still need the park brake cables and the backing plates (and possibly the spindles). I dont' think mike actually offers the kit yet, I think its just on the website. I really don't see how its going to be feasible to make a kit and sell it. Its going to be expensive if theres any money to be made. I really think its just better if everyone goes to the junk yard and does it themselves. I know its hard to find junked celicas in some places, but there just aren't a lot of other feasible possibilities. |
