Toyota Corolla Brakes

Braking hardware wears predictably on a car that racks up SA highway kilometres as reliably as the Corolla, so Toyota Corolla brakes components are in steady demand. Requests cover every generation — E90 drum setups, E100 Big Body and E120 solid and vented front discs, E140 and Quest upgraded calipers, Prestige-trim vented rear discs, and E210 dual-piston systems. Used brake calipers, brake discs, master cylinders, brake drums, handbrake cables and ABS sensors are the most commonly requested items.

New aftermarket brake pads, brake hoses, brake boosters and shoe kits are available through Gemini Parts in Johannesburg for anyone who prefers unused wear items, while Caryota Spare in Cape Town supplies used pads. Pricing typically sits at R380-R950 for a pair of used front discs, R280-R650 for a used caliper, R180-R420 for pad sets, and R650-R1,400 for a booster with master cylinder attached.
