Hey guys Paul here . Just bought my first Aristo at the Tokyo aution last week. Its a 94 model non turbo. One thing I just found out after i bought it is that its got aftermarket brakes which is unusual for a N/A model. Also got 18" rims , coilovers and stainless exhaust . Cant wait.
Dude, you totally won't need those aftermarket brakes on an NA (hint hint)
Yeah I agree, I have a 97 NA and It has the same breaks as the TT's and my car stops prettttty quick, granted it doesn't have a BMC, but the NA's are about 100ish KG lighter. BTW, was there any reason why you brought an NA? Haha, just askin, coz as soon as you see how fast the GTE's are you'll crave some turbo's. _________________

Hey while we are talking brakes hey richy have you looked at your rotors? When I went to get some new ones (I have a 92 na) i found that the TT ones are 296mm in diameter and the na ones are 275mm in diameter have you come across this too or is mine just an odd one out?

Just for NA owners I take it? I doubt you would be able to keep up on a cruise with the twins
you guys will have to stop for fuel before us lol
but yeah definately cant keep up with the turbo ones stower knows all about saw his car one night tried to catch up and he floored it i had -100% of catching up. Im very jealous of you guys but i would only get myself in a world of trouble with the police like i have done with previous turbo cars i've owned. But i must say i cant complain about getting 680km per tank.
