TRQ Rear Brake Pad & Rotor Kit Compatible with 2000-03 Camry Solara

Our review of the TRQ Rear Brake Pad & Rotor Kit finds it best suited for owners of 2000-01 Toyota Camry and 1999-03 Toyota Solara with rear disc brakes who want a straightforward, like-for-like replacement. The single biggest reason to consider this kit is that it bundles rear ceramic pads, rear rotors and parking brake shoes so users get a complete rear service in one purchase, reducing parts mismatch and repeat visits. The kit aims to restore braking performance with less dust and lower noise, and it includes a 2-year / 24,000-mile limited warranty on the parts themselves.

Key Features

• Complete rear kit: Includes a rear ceramic brake pad set, rear rotors and rear parking brake shoes so both friction and hardware are replaced together for consistent performance.
• Ceramic friction material: The ceramic compound produces less brake dust than many semi metallic pads, helping keep wheels cleaner over time.
• Positive molded pads: Molded design is intended to reduce uneven wear and reduce dust, contributing to more consistent stopping feel.
• G3000 casting alloy rotors: Rotors cast in a G3000 alloy aim to reduce noise and improve wear resistance for longer service life.
• Application specific design: Kit is intended to fit rear disc brake applications with parking shoes on specified Camry and Solara model years for a no modification installation.
• Parts warranty: TRQ provides a 2-year / 24,000-mile warranty covering the cost of replacement parts only.

Who It's For

This kit is for DIY mechanics and independent shops working on late 1990s to early 2000s Toyota Camry and Toyota Solara rear disc brake systems with parking shoes. It fits owners who prefer replacing pads and rotors together for balanced braking feel and who value lower dust and quieter operation from ceramic pads.

Drivers who need exact OEM-match fitment for Japan built models or other model years should verify production origin and fitment before buying, because some customers reported mixed fit results. If you need premium performance track pads or have an unusual brake configuration, a specialized aftermarket kit may be a better choice.

Pros & Cons

Pros

• Complete rear kit replaces pads, rotors and parking shoes for a single purchase and matched components.
• Ceramic pads reduce visible dust, keeping wheels cleaner compared with many non ceramic compounds.

Cons

• Fitment received mixed feedback from some customers, so verifying the exact production date and rear disc configuration is important before installation.
