TRD Brake Upgrade

So I'm a Big Brakes fan and am planning on upgrading the BRZ's brakes as soon as possible...figured I'd pick up the TRD kit; 6 pot front, 4 pot rear, braided lines, rotors and brackets...


til I got the price....$10,400.00

Makes the BremboUSA kits seem dirt cheap!

You could buy a used V6 Mustang for that!

usualy when a compagnie set the price of an item that high that normal poeple will not pay, its just to keep the exclusivity.

personnaly, i hope brembo or stoptech will make an "affordable" kit.

Brembo has the same kit as TRD (since the TRD is made by Brembo) for around $7,000 (front & rear)...available now.
