As I worked closely with Jeremy on the Signature Kit development for the Supra. Are the rotors from China? Probably, is it an issue? More time to tell, mines mostly street driven but Mike from Boss Boss Racing has the kit as well and has tracked many times and it's performed wonderfully.

Refurb or even brand new CTSV-V/ZL1 Calipers are dirt cheap. im talking they sell here in Canada for $450 CAD on amazon for 1 front caliper... Combine that with cost of CNC'ing the calipers, brackets, lines, pads, rotors the kits aren't far off from a "cost to manufacture/piece together" then to sell as a kit.

My opinion is that you shouldn't be three (3) exclamation points in the title
True lol. I do want a 2 piece brake disc for our Supra, but by the way. There was a guy that also own a Supra in the twin city and he told me that our oem disc brake were 2 piece.? Is that true.?

I'm interested as well. I just ordered a set of Paragon rotors last week, but I haven't received them yet. I'll be putting them through their paces with several HPDEs this year. My stock rotors warped.
they didn’t warp

Technically they are 2 piece up front but I wouldnt refer to them as a true 2 piece rotor since you cant replace the rings.

Interesting, I havent heard those. Everything on mine seemed solid. Ive done real brembo BBKs before, and the calipers looked real to me. I know 2 e90 guys who have the kit that track with them, and no complaints from either of them.
Any brake bias change when swapping to the ZL1 calipers? That you can feel, anyways?

Allegedly 3-4% push rearward in bias, which will be appreciated when trail braking. I havent been able to track it with them yet, but once I do, ill post some info.
