Make sure if you buy the Supra TT caliper, you buy the larger rotors as well....Tiny

Can I use the Brembo rotors with my stock calipers? Or do I have to upgrade to the supra tt brakes.

Hmmmm...JacobT said in another thread that Brembo does not make OEM rotors for the GS...Only PowerStop...Same difference I guess...

I think the confusion is whether the larger Brembo brake rotors can be used with stock calipers - the answer to that is no. If you change the size of the rotor, you have to change the caliper accordingly and usually that comes in a complete kit...

Guys,

To date, Brembo does not make OEM replacement rotors for the GS (beware!) It does for the Supra TT, to use them, you would need the Supra calipers.

$100 for a brembo rotor? $400 for all 4 rotors plus price of calipers?

That's a steal I would think, wasn't there some guy who was selling a brake upgrade kit for like $2,500??

How come the big price difference? What is the difference between a brembo rotor$caliper upgrade and the $2,500 brake upgrades that others talk about?

I have a question. How many rotors are we talking about? 2 or 4? Personally speaking, I'd go with 2 rotors (just front) to lower the cost.
