supraaaaaaaaaa Posted June 5, 2006 Share Posted June 5, 2006 you have some great companies on here, but just wonderd i have been looking all day at supras and things for them and what is the deal with all the stuff from ths states like intercoolers etc is the quality crap on ebay as they seem so cheap !! oh and is it worth upgrading the rear brakes on the supra as they are rwd or is most braking done from the front ? sorry to bug everyone, till i get the car i always go on a quest for knowledge to get my head round it all Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nic Posted June 5, 2006 Share Posted June 5, 2006 dont get me wrong i wasnt having a pop at all, just wonderd as the price seemed to be very different, but as you said i may have to get used to looking at each trader for wat they do best I can usually beat most US delivered prices on Japanese branded products, just give me a shout if I can help with anything. The front brakes on all cars (RWD, FWD or AWD) provide at least 70% of the braking force. Saying this, it is preferable to upgrade both front and rear brakes at the same time to retain front/rear brake balance. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
