I have a 98 convertible and with the heavy 18" wheels the braking is not as good as i want it to be.

I don't want anything extreme like a big brake kit but i want something better than stock, maybe a biger caliber with a set of good pads.

Is there any toyota models with bigger brakes like supra or gt4 that i can use their parts without too much custom work? I mean if i just need a custom braket to use the gt4 caliber with convertible or gt4 rotor that would be nice (if the gt4 rotors fit the convertible).

Any other options?

**edit** ps. Is a 98" with beams motor. Don't know what model that makes it.

Cool... I'm sure you have way more experience than I do with this, I was just basing my statement on my own experience. Of course if you have enough $$$ to spend on really good pads, it definitely changes things. You'll have to let us know how those redstuff pads do for you though. One of these days I just might have enough $$$ to spend on really good pads. wink.gif
