Hi all,

Just thought I'd share some of my findings and reading with you all.

I'm looking at upgrading the brakes on my supra and have been researching kits out there...

There's a lot of them - but so far the best priced and best performing (imho) is the Arizona Performance Wilwood brake kit.

Andy at AZP has just finished the rear kit with an integrated handbrake and my discussions with Regency park on legalities of these is that they get the all clear, provided the overall track of the car doesn't change.

So suitable wheel choice and it's a go.

Fronts:
13 Inch x 1.38 Wilwood rotor
Wilwood 6 piston forged ultralite caliper
Wilwood street compound brake pads

Includes braided lines, all fittings and a stack more:
Price (USD): $1545 + Shipping and handling

Rear:
12.9 Inch x 1.25 Wilwood rotor
Wilwood 4 piston forged ultralite caliper
Wilwood street compound brake pads

Includes braided lines, all fittings and again a stack more:
Price (USD): $1595.00 + shipping and handling

I'll be ordering mine soon, was just waiting for Andy to finish the integrated handbrake setup.
Also for the record: I don't know Andy personally have just asked him a wad of questions and can't wait to buy these.

I'd say these would be almost on par - if not better than fitting F40 Brembo's, the grex kit, and 100 times better than the nightpager 'kit' (more a bracket really).

Any one else here had any experience with big brake kits?

Cheers,
Ben.

Gee they look decent - and would perform fantastic -

originally i was going down the path of finding big brakes off of a A80 supra - and trying to fit on a70

but they dont fit - unless make a plate for them to fit onto etc -

these would be a great kit if had the cash - :crazy:

Stika,

To fit the A80 brakes or R32 brakes, you can buy the nightpager kit - but it's still around $1200 + brakes + calipers etc... so when I saw these I was blown away.

On SM they have a guy running 600+ whp at track days with these and he raves about them.

To me money well spent - given my goals for the supra ;)
(I don't really have the money either - but when has that stopped us supra people)
