Please post pics of these bad boys once installed!My R1 brakes came in today. I worked with James and he was able to get me a great price and answered my questions without issue. He also gave me status updates as well.
I was surprised to see that the rear calipers are actually a smaller 6 piston as well. I was told that they would be 4. But it works out.
The color theme of the car is basically going to be black with silver accents. I decided to ditch the red brakes. Hopefully I made the right choice for myself.
I've got some SSR SP1's ordered through Joshua @Meraki Autoworks. He's got to be the most patient person in the world having to deal with me. He's offered great customer service every step of the way.
That's awesome, post some pics when they're installed! I was torn between the 57DR and 57CR for a while but ultimately decided on the latter. I ordered my set yesterday.My Gram Light 57DRs in finally. Getting them installed tomorrow. Ordered an APR front splitter, some Rays center caps, and some random Rexpeed carbon stuff.
I ordered my R1 brakes a few weeks ago and wait to get them now. Cant wait to see yours on the car.My R1 brakes came in today. I worked with James and he was able to get me a great price and answered my questions without issue. He also gave me status updates as well.

How's the sound in the cabin compared to stock? I removed the ASD so the Supra is kind of lacking now...Installed a catted Active Autowerke downpipe this morning.
Performance-wise, it does seem like the turbo spools more quickly, not that there was significant lag before. I feel like someone here said it's kind of like having a V8, and having had an LS3 Camaro, I think that is pretty accurate. There's more punch all across the range.
Sound-wise, and maybe I'm in the minority but I don't think it's that-that different from stock. At everyday revs, I really don't think anyone would know there's anything different about it. Higher revs, it's a different story...
Cruising around town or the highway, it is the same as stock. Maybe 5% louder, if that. No drone or vibration either. At higher RPMs (where ASD starts to kick in anyway), it's a little louder. Hard to put a number on it. It is wet and cool here today so I haven't had a chance to send it. Let me come back to you over the weekend when things dry out.How's the sound in the cabin compared to stock? I removed the ASD so the Supra is kind of lacking now...
Could you guys share the price on these and maybe some links? Thanks!I ordered my R1 brakes a few weeks ago and wait to get them now. Cant wait to see yours on the car.
~ now that’s some protection!I got these new luxury mats - amazing! Fit is great all the way up and around and back the sides of the rails of the seats.
