You shouldnt really use them going that fast unless its an emergency...in which case your probably screwed anyway. They will literally melt at that speed. Unless you have really good brakes, Like giant 15 inch rotors and ceramic pads that wont melt
yup, brembo slotted big brakes, with 4 piston calipers, and hawk pads,
works like a charm, stops me on a dime

maybe a little to strong, cuz it caused me to tailspin,
i had front end damage twice bcuz of factory brakes failing me
so that why i opted for the best

thanks they look cool... but no price i can see.. =/

this wasnt in my supra,
but the rotors costs me 300 a pair,,
calipers about 275 ,
pads 75

about 600 somewhat dollars after everything was said and done
i got from my shop here, they specialize in this type of things
the money wasnt even an issue, well it was

but its my LIFE vs. MONEY
and i chose to live longer
its really worth it

thanks alot man... well im waitin on my aftermarket fuel filter and metal head gasket so... after all thats said and done i will definitly buy amazing breaks... i warped my roters from stopping 200+ all the time lol thanks again though

OEM size/style rotors should be fine as long as your nice to them...Dont ride them to long when your going fast, etc. Mine are still fine and ive done several 100+(mph) stops with them lol. The only reason id say get the big brakes is beacause they wont melt stopping from high speed, But ive never done it in a sitch where i would need to stop that fast. But it is better to be safe than sorry(ie dead) so shelling out the money is worth it, If youy think youll need em. Im gona try the ebay 88 rotors brakes/EBC pads, ill let everyone know how they work
