Yeah 6/4 pot brakes is just WoW!

The ST205 Celica GT-Four and the JZA80 only had 4/2 pots and they were amongst the quickest stopping production cars ever made (A lot more powerful and heavier)

My GT-Four never had brake issues on trackdays (TRD Disks and Pads with lovely fluid) with the stock calipers, braided lines, and an aftermarket brake cylinder reinforcement bracket and was running around 440 Bhp

So I'm interested to see why 6/4 was chosen and not 4/2 which would be less weight :s

I wonder how much of that we'll actually get here.

I still have a feeling we'll only get one model spec from Scion too. Not sure if it'll be high or low, but I wonder if they're willing to go against what they've done forever so far.

Good stuff regardless!

Random dude: "wow, those are some nice brakes, that thing got a turbo?"
FRS Owner: "er... uh... no"
Dude: "oh, well I bet it's pretty fast though to have brakes like that"
FRS Owner: "er... it's uh.. not really, no"
Dude: "oh... welp... see ya later"

This will all happen in Japanese of course because there's no way those brakes are coming to the US.

By far the best looking FT since its debut so long ago...now with all these parts, even if it starts at 24k (my opinion) will easily hit 31k......but i want it anyway LMAO

Aero: 500 for the front, 500 rear and, 800 sides. Hopefully a package will offer them all.

Wheels:2000+
