96 brake problems
I need new calipers because mine are warping my rotor. also need rear rotors, and front needs new break booster lines (old rubber is breaking with cracks).
What brand of rotor do you suggest that would be acceptable Lexus quality?
Also, some re manufactured calipers would be great.
ALL SUGGESTIONS WILL BE GREAT.

I replaced front rotors, cals and pads on my 1996 ES300, I used Advance Auto Parts for all the parts; re-manufactured cals, middle range on the pads and new rotors. Drive the car every day, normal city driving and highway driving, have not had one hint of a problem in performance or even sound. Didn't even price them out at the Lexus dealer, so don't know just what the cost difference would have been but I'm sure it would have been near double, if not more. The dealer, for me, is over 35 miles away, Advance is one mile away and circumstances dictated that I needed the parts ASAP, worked out great all round.
