Default FS: Supra TT Brakes, Brembo Rotors, SS Lines

As the title says, I'm selling my brakes. Supra TT brakes were custom painted by me. Multiple layers of paint, wetsanded, and heat cured at 400F. Piston and caliper seals were replaced as well when I bought the brakes. Brembo slotted rotors with hats painted. Goodridge stainless steel brake lines(front 2). Project Mu type NS brake pads. I've used this setup for about 10k miles. The pads still have about 60-70% left on them if not more. Since the brake pads are a lot bigger than the stock ones, they will last waaay longer than the stock brakes.

This combo stops VERY well and is a very good street setup. Very little dust, zero noise even on cold mornings. Everything is in good condition. I'll be posting up pictures when I pull it off of my car later today. Reason for upgrading: I'm buying new rims and new big brakes so the old set of brakes needs to go. I will also be selling both sets of my G35 wheels for those of you who are interested.

Sale price $600 shipped.



That's what it looked like when I installed it. I'll post up some updated pix later today.

Fantasic deal for TT Setup, better get these with the Brembos because they are not making the Brembo Front TT Rotors any more

It depends on if your rims are made to clear big brakes.

Neither the width nor the offset of the rim factors into clearance of the calipers. It all depends on the "disk" of the rims. That's the clearance between the hub of the rim (where it touches the rotor) and the inside of the spokes.

I don't exactly know what a "TRD wheel" is, but chances are if it weren't made for big brakes coming from Toyota, it'd prob won't clear.

I dunno since I never really measured. But normally the disk of the rims are classified as low, medium, or high. High disks are made for cars with big brakes.

Generally if a set of rims has a big lip, it has a low disk and a low offset to balance the lip.

I know this must be posted somewhere out there but how much wider is this set up than stock wheels? In other words how much more clearance is needed? Any ideas?

I think the stock 17" rim will fit with a 5mm spacer....or was it 15mm. Someone here confirm that for me. I'm running the G35 wheels on my car and it fits perfectly with plenty of room to spare.

Werd . It doesn't look bad either (with the centercaps removed).
