    TRD brakes

    Hello everyone. I have been through the daunting task many times of trying to find reputable companys that make parts for the 7th gen. Corolla (with a very low success rate). I was however wondering if TRD makes a brake kit (not necessarily a big brake kit) for the 7th gen. Corolla, or a simliar setup that would fit my 97. I saw the TRD logo (see video below) on a set of brakes and was wondering if there really is a kit (or at least calipers) that are made to fit the 7th gen. If anyone knows if these are legit TRD calipers or just stickers, please let me know as I'm looking to upgrade my stoppers to something a little better. Thanks in advance.

    I wouldn't even bother with getting TRD..... Go with some Brembo's or Powerslots and some good ceramic pads and you will be able to stop hard enough to hurt yourself.

    ^^ Yup, Wilwood Engineering. http://www.wilwood.com/

    A very reputable manufacturer of aftermarket and custom applications. Usually caters to older muscle cars, but have been expanding out to imports. If they don't have something on the shelf, they can build up a custom app for you.
