JBT/Wilwood brake kits? - Page 2 - Toyota Yaris Forums

Be careful what you buy. All the kits your looking at are fixed position calipers which means any run-out in your rotors and your steering wheel will feel like it's coming out of your hands. 70% of all braking is done by the front unless you change your M/C to a more race oriented M/C which is about a 60/40 split.

I've delt with Willwood for 10 years good quality parts but most of their caliper now are cast and not billet. Not a big deal for what were doing.

You can call Willwood direct ask for Caral tell him Aras sent you from Aerospace. He'll take care of you. It helps when you been in the brake business for a decade.

The KIDO kits are very nice, well-made brake kits for the Yaris. We have them on a few cars now with no issues.

I am also a Wilwood dealer, but I have not seen a Yaris kit from them.

It was a great eight year run, but it was time to focus on other things. I'm still selling parts on eBay under micro*image seller ID and customers can still make requests for anything specific.
