5 Must Have Braking Mods for the BRZ/FR-S/86

A great way to improve the stock BRZ/FR-S/86 is by upgrading the braking system (unless you have the TRD edition with the massive Brembo package). This car handles great and has a good degree of power for what you need, so improving the braking is going to make this car feel a little sportier and quicker around the corners. In this video, we dive into several of the most popular and effective ways to upgrade the brakes on this platform.

Hey man just came across your channel yesterday. Love the vids. Keep it up.

[@Motoroso]

Thanks! We will!

[@raulbustamante8337]

super detailed, thank you very much for this quality content

[@Motoroso]

You’re welcome, glad you found it helpful!

This video is right on time I bought a 2013 brz upgraded the exhaust and suspension. And now my breaks are starting to make some noise, I was starting to get a lil scared 😂

[@bradyheber9046]

Love the vids

[@Motoroso]

Thanks Brady!

I wouldn't recommend Hawk HPS to anybody doing a track day with base model brakes. My own car with 200tw tyres, stock power, usually gets temps around 1000-1100F. HPS work to around 700F. Hawk have great temp comparisons on their site.

Can you confirm which models/options have the TRD brake kits as OEM? I haven't heard of this upgrade on a FRS/BRZ before

[@Motoroso]

The TRD trim level was introduced as a 2018 option, and included the more robust Brembo brakes. www.caranddriver.com/news/a22517593/toyota-86-gets-harder-edged-trd-model/

@@Motoroso Thanks!

[@CK_ONE]

@@thomasedwards6144 TRD edition has the same brembo brakes as the performance pack BRZ. The TRD brakes he was taking about is a real kit but it’s only available through TRD Japan

[@adamcomeaux7718]

I bet all the stock brakes on these cars are still better than the OEM C8 brakes

[@Motoroso]

Haha, might maybe, could possibly, definitely be correct about that 🤣

[@kyogregaming1178]

Now ik this is a stupid and weird question but, what are those wheels

[@racehemi426425]

I'm just a normal old guy. I cannot stand brake booster delay. Does anybody talk about that?

[@esko23q]

First Gen 86 - call it Zenki

Drilled rotors are good for failing on the track. If you track your car, stay away from them.
