Default Supra Brakes Special Buy

Guys, this is not done yet, but I am working on creating a deal for a Supra Brake Upgrade. A friend of mine has access to purchase parts at shop cost through some large rebuilders and has other sources for nes stuff, so I am getting this setup now and once it is on and I am comfortable, I was curious how many would be interested, Please email me at craig@texlex if you would be interested so I know how hard to push this.

Here goes

Rebuilt Supra Turbo 4 Piston Calipers with a Lifetime Warranty (Warranty would have to be through me)

Brembo Rotors Drilled and Slotted (This is done by some shop
who buys the blanks from Brembo and does the work)

Semi Metallic Pads (Nothing Special)

Hardware Kit including pins, shims and clips.

All for $475 + Shipping

Just want to know who would be interested, I should have it all on my car next week.

So the shop does the actual drilling of the rotors? Is Brembo stamped on there somewhere? Could be stock supra rotors for all we know if not.

I might be interested in a set of rotors by themselves...can they drill a stock rear set to match?

Late.

The shop doing the drilling is not the same as my friends shop, they get them from a machine shop that specializes in machining rotors. As soon as I get mine, hoefully today or tomorrow I will let you know, I can post some pictures of the rotors and calipers if that will help. I am going to try this setup on my car before offering it up to everyone here anyway. I am waiting to hear about matching rear rotors.

can you get dimpled, instead of drilled? They don't crack like the drilled ones do.

Default interesting...

Hmm... is this for the complete set of front and rear brakes? And if it is, are both f/r going to be drilled? Thanks.

That is all.

I do not know about dimpled rotors, I can ask... The listed items are for the front only, to add GS400 matching drilled and slotted rotors to the rear (for use with stock GS calipers) it is an additional $150. This does not include Brake lines. I am putting this on my car on Monday, and will let you know how it goes, I am probably losing money on these by the time I consider my time, I was looking for a deal to get brakes on the car cheaply, then I can add lines, and hipo pads etc. later. But I though I might pass this along to CL members, I AM NOT OUT TO MAKE A BUNCH OF CASH ON THIS, JUST GET A BUNCH OF LEXI TO STOP BETTER!!!
