Upgraded brakes for a GX100

Post by Hoadster »

Do you guys know what size rotors you can run on a GX100, or if there's a limit? Are you just restricted by the size of your wheels? I have 17's on right now and have been looking at used supra bbk's. Thanks fo the help guys.

you will be sweet with the 17" and the BBK on the gx100 ( edit do the gx100 run the same control arm as the jzx100s? )

however its the calipers that will cause you the most gref as some wheels dont always clear them

Update: I picked up a pair of Z32 rebuilt and powdercoated front 4pots for $60 bucks. I know these can be fitted to my gx100, but cant find the thread. Anyone done this? I need answers..

Anyone know where I can pick up some RCA's? As it turns out, the Supra kit was difficult to find, but I was able to source UCF20 rotors and calipers. From my understanding, I'll need Roll Centre Adjusters in order to run these effectively.

I bought my RCA's from Yahoo Japan. They're a cheap part, can get some no-frills ones for peanuts or pay a bit more for fancy anodized ones that come with stickers etc :lol:

You're in Japan aren't you? Should be easy to find over there...
