performace brakes
 

anybody have any perfromace brakes that work really good, and that are not that expensive? thanks

RE: performace brakes
 

from www.tirerack.com you will find various brakes. for better braking you will sacrafice some brake noise and dust.
Brembo sport brakes
Akebono Street Performance
Hawk HPS
Hawk HP Plus (Track only...not good for daily use)
and Satisfied GranSport GS6 pads will give you the best braking power from their line up.

ok thanks

Satisfied is quiet and minimal dusts. Thats what i'm using.

RE: performace brakes
 

which satisfied are you using?


i decided to try the regular satisfieds in the rear and have some brake noise at times and dust, plus it seems to be increased rotor wear.

too bad they dont make the gransports for our car....i think those would be SICK to have.

i have the Satisfied Pro Performance only in the front where there's ABS. LOL.

RE: performace brakes
 

oh, then you havent felt true braking performance yet. hehe. that stuff is just base oem.

did you know that your dums also have abs?

RE: performace brakes
 

what?!?! No FUk*N way !! god i hope you're not sh!tt!ng me...

RE: performace brakes
 

im crapping you about what? the fact that those pads are not performance brakes or the fact that you have abs on all 4 corners? haha

RE: performace brakes
 

i meant the abs on all 4 wheels..

I had to bust out my haynes manual to seeif i was right.
Since all gen 4's have speed sensors on all 4 corners and the same ABS hose adapters/fitments (things are different on the no abs models), i will say that you do have abs front and back...which kind of only makes sense. If you only had abs in the front and the rears locked up you'd be fish tailing your heart out...if not a total rotational spin.

Now i dont know if your camry has 4 way abs or just 3 way, but since there is no connected axle in the rear i will say you have 4 way independent abs just like on the 4 weel disc models. It'd be too costly for toyota to manufacture 3 different parts/designs for just the camry anyways.

in case you're wondering what is the differnce between 3 or 4 way abs.
My minivan had a 3 way abs system. it works like this.
Instead of 4 speed sensors there are only 3. 2 for the front two wheels and 1 for both the rear two. if at any one time one of the wheels in the rear would lock up the brakes would be pumped for both of the drums.
and the fronts always work independently to maximize brake force.
