If you want bigger rotors just buy the jza70 rotors they're 300+mm. If you want something better go to Specialised Brake and Clutch in St marys (Sydney). I have custom mounting hats and slotted rotors 330mmx28mm for $450 each side that's hat and rotor. I've been told Wilwood's are not good for heavier cars and you're better off going with AP's Brembo's or Alcon etc. These are not THAT expensive when you consider what we all pay for extra engine performance e.g. the top of the range monoblock 6 piston alcon is $1350 per caliper and it's f*ckin huge!!!!! Personally I don't think this is too bad and obviously 4 spotters are a lot cheaper.

Already have 300mm slotted dba's.

Rang up brake and clutch last week (saw a old thread mention the name) and price was $2900 for a AP Racing 4pot caliper and 330mm rotors with custom hats for the front. If i do the z32 way i can get 324mm rotors with the 4 piston, but it will cost $500+$300 calipers+$400 slotted rotors which works out quite a bit cheaper, but dunno how engineerable it is with the shaving spacers+shaving of the hub.

mk3 Supra brakes are resonabley big, but the car is damn heavy and the caliper is single piston. They do stop "ok" but repeat several times and watch them fade Razz

. Thats why going the bigger rotor/4piston will help that *hopefully*
