Looking for: TRD BBK

[Riapsed 2]

Looking for the rare TRD monoblock brake kit or the equivalent brembo GT BBK 6 pots 32x355 front and 4 pots 28x345 rear.

Hi Riapsed,

Those kits aren't widely sold in the UK, the people that have BBK conversions generally have K-Sport, Stoptech, Cosworth or AP.

The Brembo kits are quite expensive when imported, I don't think there's a single UK car running them.

Sorry I can't be of further help.

Hey, thanks for the reply. I know the chances to find one are pretty low but if for some reasons, an opportunity arises ...

No worries, wish you luck in your search!

I know that if cost was no option James @ Amber Performance does have them listed, not sure if he has stock or if they're special order though.

Will probably wait for some used kit since I don't have proper wheels with enough clearance to mount them yet anyway.

Might as well look at 2nd hand alternative of Brembo, AP etc - better brakes for probably less money than the TRD kit which is a ridiculous price

Thanks for the alternative dude, but for the moment I may be a bit narrow minded and my heart is set on the TRD one.

But why?

Guessing AP/TRD are better quality than K-Sport.

Dunno to tell the truth, I only know the TRD is the worst performance/price ratio.

I'll challenge that. My whole front and rear setup cost less than half of what the TRD front setup cost

That's what he's saying, the TRD is expensive so from that perspective its better getting something else which costs less and does the same thing.

For what it's worth the Brymbo TRD kit is the best brake kit on the market. Those monobloc Brymbo calipers cost a packet similar to the AP radical calipers which are also very very expensive single piece ultra light forged calipers derived from a proper race spec caliper

I'm not spending more on brakes than on a turbo.

I understand the logic, and understand brakes = safety etc etc

But more power > more stopping.

Not when you can get very decent brake kits for far less.

I just wanted to point out they are top end products but the AP racing stuff is better value for money.
