North Carolina Tacomas?!

Might as well add SS lines too. I'll be here all day spending other people's money.

 

Becuz race truck

Soon I'm looking at getting the EBC stage 4 and SS lines

 

Should be under warranty still if they have that low of miles

 

Dude look at the Legacy 3.6R v6 stick shift and a bigger car than the WRX. Or the Forester with the Turbo in it. I think it's a 2.5xt

 

I won't ever waste money one EBC again haha tundra brake mod and cheap auto parts store stuff if I dont get a new truck

 

What EBC stuffs did you have? I'm not set on it, just eyeballing it. My stock brakes have been fine 90% of the time, but I would like a little more performance for towing

 

Have had Green and yellow pads both paired with EBC slotted rotors. Granted I dont blame EBC for the first warping because of my wheel bearing. But I just can't justify spending that price for a third time just yet especially since I've been running the cheap stuff from Oreilly's for pads and they work just as fine as my ebc ones did with the same amount of dust haha.

Edit: If I do ever replace these brakes it will be, with SS lines, Brand new fluid all throughout, and all new hardware as far as pads and rotors and either the Tundra calipers or a complete rebuild for the stock ones currently if I dont get bigger rims.

 

I think you are the first I know of to not be happy with EBC, thanks for the input. My buddy had EBC rotors and green pads to stop his 37's and he swears by them. I'm gonna give them a shot. I ordered SS lines and plan to refill with DOT 4 as well. I need to do the ABS kill switch because that system is fucking dangerous on 2nd gen's.

 

I've done the ABS kill and it's amazing! Need to do SS and new rotors/pads, not that I need them right now..

 

I have had the brakes operate fine in an emergency stop, no abs shutter bullshit, but there have been times when ABS kicks in for no damn reason and causes me to almost hit someone. It is scary

 

My wife and I were driving I-540 in North Raleigh near the airport the other morning when a nice looking red second gen passed us with a Tacoma World decal in the back window. I just wished traffic was slower so we could have given him a shout out to see if he lived up that way.

 

I would wager it's @tacopaulo

Thx

 

I live in north Raleigh and I work in morrisville. Im on 540 a lot so that was probably me.

 

I'm sure most of the problems were on my end honestly haha but too pricey for me to chance it

 

New to TW I live in Wilmington anyone around the SE area? need some tacos in my life

 

Wabotaco and nastyneight I believe are from Wilmington

 

New to the forum as well. Carolina pride!

 

Nice and welcome to TW!

 

I drive to Durham/Chapel Hill a lot in the mornings from 6 forks and 540. If you see a '15 Magnetic Grey access cab with a matching Leer topper with a PDGA sticker on the back, that's me.
