Again guys, getting the z06 brakes would be for looks tho, supra tt calipers stops better than the z06
True
But braking generates heat, and the more heat the disc can absorb and dissipate, the greater the fade resistance of the system. Additionally, the use of a larger disc generally results in a larger effective radius, which increases brake torque. Just look at the difference
I"ll get the exact specs on the bolts when I get the new the 1/2 inch brackets. The best part is our banjo bolts are the some thread ..
That is an awesome price for those rotors. I paid doubled that when I started this project..It's been a while, as you all can see in the pictures the rotors are all rusted now
Will you be reselling any of these brackets? Since your still at the pre-production stage Id gladly help fund the final product for a set of brackets and hardware for my self.
Ive driven cars with both Supra TT brakes swapped on and C6 Zo6 brake swaps and the the zo6 brakes are much better in feel and brake modulation. Especially when the proper setup is used (better BMC, front and rear calipers) I highly doubt that the old 4 piston supra brakes compare to the 6 piston Zo6 brakes also made by brembo.
Alright guys the brackets and brakes have been installed.. And with some preliminary road test the brakes seem to be working great ..I'll take some pics and post them up later on today.
Wow...I read this thread start to finish and I am supremely impressed. Z06 calipers on IS-F rotors...wow I'm just speechless. Please provide pictues...like now

Here's one from my phone . As soon I get some time I'll post up a step by step .. It's super easy guys ..
I could say with confidence it feels better then my non drilled rotors / LS setup. There could be other factors involved not sure yet. I plan to install my old set up on a friends car. Then we plan to setup a braking course with different brake setups LS, TT, Rotora, Z06 and Brembo's the results should be interesting .. Stay tuned folks ..

I'll get you the exact #'s hopefully by Friday..I'm gonna guess around 16.5 inches at it highest point ..
