who is ELITE ?

Dunno. It was cast into the OEM drum. Looks like Toyota changed supplier? Those were bought more than 10 years ago.

those are likely NAP sourced drums .......

from the 2000's

I found my orginal postings: The OEM brand was 'Ikuta', then.

in my more then thorough search for the right brake drum topic here on GHOST , i NEVER came across any NON - TOYOTA GENUINE PARTS Drums that even alluded to be MADE IN JAPAN .........



nor ITALY either , the OEM HOME FORGE Country where all BREMBO Brand Drums and ROTORS are cast and machined also ...

sad......

Unfortunately, Brembo has moved production to CCP for export Rotors. I bought a set of Rotors from RA recently and made in CN

Won't lacquer last about a minute outdoors? Wouldn't a good enamel be a better paint for chassis work?

- the black lacquer i use has a exterior application spec. / marine grade

- you don't have to sand between coats , and NEVER a orange peel flash factor effect like with say a oil base aerosol enamel ..
