Default Need opinions about my next mod...brakes

Hello fellow members,

Well, it's been a couple months and the mod bug is biting! I am thinking about doing a big brake upgrade. Not looking for the expensive stuff, here is what I've narrowed it down to. Which would you pick? and why?

1. Supra TT (depending on whether the calipers will clear my wheels)
2. TRD
3. Rotora
4. Any other quality ones less than $2K?

I think the TRD and Rotora comes with the rear setup, not sure about the Supra TT.

PS...I am not mechannically inclined, so I will be installing this at a shop (any idea as to approximate labor cost?). Also, will the upgrade void my warranty?

Thanks all.

Richard

trd and supra tt are the same calipers. rotora my only concern with them is still long time durability, other than that it's all good. supra tt a lot of members have them, they are heavy but they do the job. maybe you can check stoptech too, they have setup for the gs as well

they are all ONLY front setup. stoptech is the only company with rear caliper upgrades as well. most people they just upgrade the rear rotors, pads, and ss lines
