decemberist ring Posted May 31, 2007 Share Posted May 31, 2007 I just bought a 1995 SC400 and it has quite a bit of rust on the rear brake drums. I spent a lot of time polishing it off, but it came back. Does anyone know of a solution for this? Also I found a used 87 supra tranny, will it work on my car?

lexus082 Posted June 1, 2007 Share Posted June 1, 2007 Your car has rotors in the rear. OEM rotors dont rust as some aftermarket rotors. Also Brembo rotors that are plated hold up extremely well against rust. I don't think the transmission would work, someone else will probably know for sure.

jzz30 Posted June 1, 2007 Share Posted June 1, 2007 tranny wont fit. also could you elaborate on your brakes? like the above post the car has disks in the rear. are you talking about your calipers? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
schott1984 Posted June 1, 2007 Share Posted June 1, 2007 Well, there are drums inside the rear rotors for the handbrake... Something with those maybe? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lexus082 Posted June 5, 2007 Share Posted June 5, 2007 If the brake dust is excessive it may be from the use of aftermarket pads. Also you may want to check the pads to see if they are wearing evenly on both sides. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
