Rotora Big Brake kit install **pics**
#21
Mine has been a work in progress for 1 ½ years, don’t sweat it as everyone is at different stages of the game. Your email was appropriate, we communicate on a one dimensional media (forums/email) I generally look between the lines for the question and provide the answer. As most know me I take nothing personal, I don’t subscribe to politics, haters or BS. They have no place, value or benefits to growing the community.
As to the Kaminari, great choice and may want to pick that up on another thread as we don’t want to get to far off topic.
The front brake kit is complete, caliper, pads and rotor. I spoke to Rotora and they have limited the product offering to front Calipers only. Rotora has no plans to make a rear caliper in any piston combination. The rear Rotors, break lines and pads are available to order for the rear. Since most of the breaking force is on the front the stock caliper will suffice. I will be changing the rear rotors, pads and brake lines in the next week.
The front 4 piston is the lower price and the 6 piston is the higher one, you won’t need the 6 piston trust me. Unless you’re doing hard core racing stick to the 4 piston.
When you go to the SCO web site, search by vehicle you’ll find everything offered for the tC from most of the categories and manufactures.

Looks really nice. Great pictures of the install too.
Does this kit come for all four wheels, or just the front two?
Anyone understand why none of the aftermarket brake systems seem to be for all four? (Besides the 60/40 thing)

The kit is a complete front end, Rotor, pads, Caliper and brake lines. The rears consists of rotor, pad and lines, I should have them shortly. The amount of braking power needed in the rears is minimal compared to the fronts. Unless you’re all out racing having a system like this in the rear would be more for looks. The cost is pretty steep for the amount of braking in the rears, this is why most companies don’t make them. I would buy them if they had them.
They should make a smaller 2 piston version, meets the braking needs without going over kill and it keeps the cost down. Rotora are you watching?

****QUESTION FOR ROTORA BBK OWNERS******
Hey guys, I just picked up a used Rotora front BBK for hella cheap. I need to replace the brake pads that come with this kit, does anyone happen to know a part number for some brake pads that will fit this BBK???
