Yes although the calipers are equal dimensions the piston sizes are different from front to rear. While I cannot give out the exact size of the pistons used the rear is sub 25mm x 4 per caliper and the front is sub 40mm x 2 & sub 45mm x 2 per caliper. Each application is track tested until the optimum piston sizes are found, this testing provides unparalled brake bias and balance.

4 wheel package is very nice, I just didn't want to drop that much gold. I'm very happy with my front only package.

I'm going to ask Steve Ganz to post pics of his new Rotora Super Big Brake Kit on his Supra. He got the 6 pot up front and the 4 pot in the rear. Should look sweet.... he just had it installed a few weeks ago..

Well, GammaLex just put his Rotoras on. I think 2001HiTechGS put his Rotoras on too. I know there are a couple of more StopTechs in a month or two.
