Details will follow later, hopeful;ly later today. I still need to work some more on the car but not the brakes, I have an issue with my driver side control arm that needs to be fixed, but brake-wise I'm done.




quick teaser

15 mm spacers was needed to clear MY wheels
calipers HAVE to be grind off and spacer was used to push the rotor OUT 3 mm in order to clear ball joint.
Rotor is based on a Cadillac Catera 2001
and I used Stanless steel brake lines and were just perfect, not too long and not short at all


I'll go over the whole thing later.


BTW, I did install the rotors backwards kindasad.gif I was tired and overlooked that, but I'll fix that sometime during the week.

7th gen brake kit is a bolt on afair, I had those install before this upgrade, I'll have those (7th gen calipers ) for sale soon



so it bolts on? so why not get the trd kit?



TRD kit goes for over US$1400.00
I spent a total of 600 on this ( not counting hte research parts that became paperweight )

now that the hard part is over, you guys should be able to put this together for under 800 shoping wisely.

and dont forget this calipers say CELICA on them so it adds to the HP list.
