QUOTE (rave2n @ Apr 10, 2012 - 11:18 AM)  QUOTE (cheela @ Apr 10, 2012 - 11:40 AM) bought them off tirerack http://www.tirerack.com/brakes/brakes.jsp?...or&make=ATE they work just like slotted rotors. I like the look of them and they work alright. a little bit of an OE upgrade but not incredible come to a full stop in .01 sec power but for my 7a, don't need much i guess  Ah I see, kinda cool looking. They make any odd noises when braking due to that? Lol looks almost like generic ABS in a sense. On off breaking on the rotor. hmm.. not that i've remembered. they've been pretty quiet. of course I don't think I've ever FULLY tested them out. I just drive around town mostly so they don't get much use. hahahah. QUOTE (richee3 @ Apr 10, 2012 - 11:37 AM) Brakes look great, Cheela! Thanks man. Wish I could bring her to the meet but Im stuck in Korea.  QUOTE (Box @ Apr 10, 2012 - 12:41 PM) Great looking car! Sorry to hear about your misfortunes here and there.

SS-III will flow with the rest of the body kit.
TRD replica will bring the look of the car down towards the rear. Ie bring the weight of the rear down (when you look at it) -------------------- For Sale Items:

I have TRD rear and OEM sides, looks funny side-on.. Full TRD is definitely a good look

yeah i don't like how the ssiii look from the rear, but i like how it looks from the sides.
the TRDs look kinda weird from the side but they look awesome from the rear i think. ah, decisions decisions. but that's ok. just minor stuff. maybe i'll get both and switch them on and off.
