Need to upgrade brake for NA Auto

[Joyride]

Hi there,
I am a new 90's MR2 owner. My current brake is very poor. I am thinking to upgrade the brake.

I read some forum that the newer turbo version >93' has a larger disc caliper and master booster. And some say upgrade to Supra's caliper.

Need advice here.

Thanks.

U can get the 245 brakes easily for couple hundred n maybe skim the disc n use a better brake pad........supra brakes used alone cost a bomb n need to fabricate bracket to hold caliper.....

btw, what colour is ur new baby.......hehehe

 

[Joyride]

welcome Joyride. Did u get a good price from Andrew ?
Yes 245 brakes are good. You can improve by changing to better pads.
TRD street is a good option.
Remember to upgrade tires to go with the better braking power.
Yes..yes...do join us at our TTs...everyone wants to look at your new ride.
