    Where can you buy Brembos for 02 Corollas? I have not seen them anywhere.

    Just a reminder that Brembo cross drilled/slotted rotors are NOT done in Brembo House.
    Aftermarket companies buy Brembo blanks, and then cross drill them in house to make them more enticing to their customers. In some cases, they arent cross drilled correctly. THey should be chamfered drilled....instead of a precise edge, its indented inwards, like a cone.

    So in reality, most of these "Brembo cross drilled rotors" arent actually TRUE Brembo cut rotors.

    They are. I ran them for three years and no problems. BTW mine were Brembo blanks, and they machined them, not sure if they still use those or not.

    Also, get the camdium plating to stop the rusting.

    Thanks for the link. I might pickup their slotted rotors when the time comes. Too bad they don't have anything for the Japanese AE101 Levin rear disc brakes.

    Call them, I know they make a lot of custom sizes. if anything they can probably get them for you. Fast shipping as well, even though they are based out of Canada.

    Hello, Japan over here hehe!
    <---------

    there are bout' 5 other marines here that have levins and the parts are dirt cheap, drilled or not.

    i warped those things in two days (track driving), but they did well for those two days. i used wagner high perfromance ceramic pads and those went to hell also.

    How much for some rotors then? I know hazer00 will probably want some as well, since he did the conversion to his rear brakes.

    I use the Pep Boys Ceramic Pads on mines and no warping problem here and I have done some track time and I am not easy in the brakes either. But everybodies opiion on them is different.

    yep, i got them thangs smokin' and the rear drums almost did not want to turn so i had to stop ad let it cool for a while. The rotors were glazed like a mofo.

    as os right now its 2400 in the morning and its saturday! so when i get up i will go out and check. i know one of my buddies got his for 50 bucks from the local auto parts store and thirty if he wanted it from the junkyard. this was fro his rear rotors, as aforementioned.

    I will check for you and let you know, BTW what year and stock size or aftermarket?

    It's from an AE101 Levin, so I'm guessing 93-97. I'm interested in seeing the costs of both OEM and aftermarket slotted.

    I might have to just go with stock rotors since I can't afford anything at this time. I'll need to check the rears to see how worn they are before making that a definite.

    Power slots are good but Hawk HPS sucks. I won't make that mistake again.
