This will probably fail but the savings are significant so I thought I would post it up.
I am going to be buying a Rotora Big Brake Kit which retails for $1395. I spoke with Rotora today and they indicated that they would do a 20% discount if we could get a group buy of 5 people. Total price would be $1116 plus shipping. The shipping price quoted to me from California to Illinois was approximately $50. Slotted and Cross Drilled Rotors, 4 piston calipers, stainless braided lines, etc. The calipers come in Red or Blue. You must have at least 17" wheels. Here is some more information: Rotora Big Brake Kit Deadline is Halloween.

I doubt we will get 5 people but I just wanted to see what would happen. This upgrade is going to come at the same time as my new turbo because I feel like I am maxing out the GT brakes already.
For those that are interested, I know of 4 big brake kits for the 7th gen celicas which reportedly work for our cars. They are: 1. Brembo - $2200 2. Stoptech - $1900 3. TRD - $2200 (reportedly made by Stoptech) 4. Rotora - $1395. The Rotoras have a one piece rotor / cap while the others have two piece units. The biggest advantage of a two piece is that its cheaper to buy a new rotor later on when it needs to be replaced. Quite frankly, I won't have my car that long so the cheaper solution seems like a better alternative to me. This will be open to see if anyone else might want to get in. What about the other folks that are building monster motors? Nik?, Defgeph?, Baddica?....have you guys should be considering these babies? -------------------- QUOTE(lagos @ Jul 10, 2006 - 1:55 PM) [snapback]454118[/snapback] i know your trying to do the right thing for your motor, but this is one of those times where you should just trust the guys who have had their swaps for a while and have done a ton of research into this. |
