Any of you have any brake applications on your Solaras? I'm looking for a full application (Rotors/Calipers) but it looks like the Solaras get no love. Slotted or Drilled? Any suggestions guys? I'm ready to change out my rotors and considering buying an application. Anyone else have problems with the Solara brakes getting soft on you?

Homie, yes there is but if you want stock size go to Tirerack.com
Or you can get a Rotora kit for the front brakes, but very pricey; you would have to contact RJ@UPFD, on this forum to get them.
There is another guy who there at Rotora and he might be able to get you a discount.
When you say the brakes get soft, have you bleed the brake system??
And new pads??
If you have and done the brake system/caliper bleed right.
Then check you brake fluid levels.
If those are in good shape, then it's your brake booster.
I would recomend you get that thing fixed, trust me.
If you are gettin' a new brake booster, might ask well upgrade to Supra master cylind and booster.
More power and less foot work.
I might get the Supra master cylinder brake booster thing done soon.
