Rear disc brake conversion installed
Installed my rear disc brake conversion yesterday. Just need to adjust
the e-brake a little bit more.

Didn't really have any problems. Just took a little bit of time for me to bend the brake lines
in a good position. But they will be going away soon to make way for some Vios stainless steel braided lines.

Who said Yaris was slow?

Nice!
Is that MicroImage's kit? Are you installing a proportioning valve? |

Yes, it's the kit from Micro Image. No plans for proportioning valve.

There's no need for a proportioning valve with this kit. It's designed for the car, and while I haven't scientifically tested it, I will say I think the rear brakes are doing more of the work with the conversion installed.

I think the new rotors are 285mm. Garm or Thomas should be able to verify.

The rotor is just a little bigger than stock -- if I recall correctly, 285mm?

Just checked. There's a 285 stamped on the rotor.
