is it worth upgrading to the trd brake pads or should i stick with stock pads?

trd pads are not worth your money, they are very dusty, if you want to upgrade pads, go with ebc greenstuff or something thats a lil more expensive but the best pad out there... porterfields

I had the TRD pads. I loved them. I will tell you why. Because they id what they were made to do, stopped very hard every single time with no fade whatsoever even at the race track. I mean I guess if you are one of those show cars who can't stand to have anything on your car then they can be a problem but if you actually DRIVE your car I would recommend them. (no offens to anyone by the way

)

I have heard that axxis metal masters are some of the best pads you can get and I willbe going with those next. I rode around the track in a car with those on them and the grip very hard with no fade time and time again. Should be less dust also then the TRD's for those who are scared of getting their car dirty

About the Brembo blanks. Save your money and stick with the stock rotors.
