boostman Posted August 12, 2015 Share Posted August 12, 2015 Hi, What brake pads do people recommend for an NA? There's some on importcarparts, seam oem, any good or are ebc better? Had a search but didn't come up with much! Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Josh42 Posted August 12, 2015 Share Posted August 12, 2015 OEM or Chris Wilson pads are the general recommendation. I used Mintex once and they were fine but did generate a lot of dust. Just go OEM mate, not expensive and good quality Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jord Posted August 12, 2015 Share Posted August 12, 2015 Genuine Toyota should do you fine I'd think. Chris Wilson also does his own brake pads which a lot of people recommend. Edit: Josh beat me to it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
boostman Posted August 12, 2015 Author Share Posted August 12, 2015 Do you get the from a toyota dealer, even though there an import part? No to these then: http://www.importcarparts.co.uk/parts-info?id=674&cat=89&sub=1354&sec=1563&var=0&dc=&gen=&searchKey=&searchPart= Thank for the info Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Benjy Posted August 12, 2015 Share Posted August 12, 2015 Just give Toyota your chassis number. They'll be able to work out what brakes you've got. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Graham1984 Posted August 12, 2015 Share Posted August 12, 2015 I changed all the pads a couple of years ago while ago using TCB parts. Was About £65 (I think) for genuine front and back Toyota pads (I had to have a pattern part for the front as they were out of genuine pads) http://www.tcbparts.co.uk/ I'm surprised they need doing though already.

I don't need them just yet, I like to plan ahead haha, keep them in my garage until I have spare time! ;p Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Personally I'd go with stock Toyota ones again from TCB (cheapest place I could find even with any discounts anywhere) It previously had some other pads on there when I bought the car that had an annoying squeal to them. Imo the Genuine ones and Chris Wilson ones would be my choices if I had the car still. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
