Sneak peak.. this is the new rotor.. that is a 16" 7th gen rim.

IPB Image
Stock Rotor w/ rim installed
Stock GT Rotor no rim
New rotor no rim

Probably be 2 versions of the brake kit. One would be a 318mm rotor designed for use on 16" or larger rims. The other would be a 323mm rotor which will only fit 17" or larger rims. Both using the same 4 pot caliper. Personally I'll be using 318mm rotor.. The price difference between the two will be pretty small.. The 318mm kit will actually be the more expensive one.. between 30-40 dollars more.
Btw, these are camera phone pictures... I never thought I'd see the day when cam phone pics looked this good...


--------------------
87 4runner DLX 22re, 5spd, 4.30gr, 4" lift, 30" tires, HID w/ Projectors, 6spkr + sub, custom exhaust, 94 celica leather seats, SR5 gauge cluster and clinometer. Future engine swap... possibly a 2jzge.

Not to destory your sales, but no one one this forum actually needs a big brake kit. It's mostly a fashion statement unless you're roas coursing all the time. A lot of these guy could get by great with a SS lines, a Hawk/EBC pad, fresh rotors and some nice fuild. That would be perfect for the daily driver and weekend autocrosser.

It worked out great on my old 6gc, paired with the Eagle F1 gsd3's. For only about $300 or less, I saved my car from many a deer
