nomuken Posted November 30, 2015 Share Posted November 30, 2015 Hi there, is there a rear disc brake conversion for the S30 wich will fit with my 14x7 Konig rewinds. Read a few times that some kits are only suitable with 15inch rims Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Note: most of the popular disk upgrades do not improve braking performance. They actually reduce stopping performance and result in an unbalanced braking system. Many people regret doing the rear "disk upgrade" once they realize that it doesn't perform well and then they have to change other brake system components (domino effect) to make it work. Check out the brake balance calculations associated with various disk brake "upgrades" posted in the brake section. Hybridz has the most reliable information about Z modifications, but you have to dig it out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RebekahsZ Posted November 30, 2015 Share Posted November 30, 2015 Stay stock. Even if you have to rebuild what you have. Ditto the above. Been there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FrankieD Posted November 30, 2015 Share Posted November 30, 2015 I was planning on going to rear disk with the MSA kit. Then I read that it really doesn't improve braking. What was supposed to help improve braking was going to the Toyota front brake mod. Any input on that? It certainly would be cheaper & easier from what I've read.
