2nd Generation MR2 running supra brakes

can a mr2 run supra brake rotors easily i have heard of mr2s running them but they were highly modified and i was wondering about putting some brake man tornado rotors on one but i dont know if they will fit. can i get them to fit or do i need adapters? also will brembo calipers work with the tornado rotors?

why not just upgrade to 93 brakes or get a big brake kit designed for mk2...Hux racing out of florida makes a "supra" kit avail for mk2s..not sure if they still sell them though...

the rotors will fit if you custom fab the mounts to fit the rotors on the hub....the only difference i can see is that the supra rotors will be much larger in diameter than mr2 ones....

You will also need 16" or bigger rims to use the larger rotors
