plenty SC owners have done this. I swapped my stocks out for some Supra TT calipers... be careful once they are on.. they will throw you threw the windshield

are they bolt on ,,or do i need the brake bracket ,also rotors and backing plate ,, right ?

or cani just getthe calipers and rotors , or calipers only ?

the LS calipers fit no prob!

I did not know supra brakes would fit my car. Is this true? What other swaps are possible for my 1990 LS 400. I do think an upgrade would be nice while I am going through the trouble of doing the front suspension this winter.

I have seen a number of references to the Supra as a source of modification parts. What Supra years are we looking for?

LS400 95+ brakes is a good upgrade....

ok so like i ask before , do you know if i need the brackets and rotors and backing plate ,, or just trim my plate and get rotors and calipers ?

the caliper bolts on to the hub. and i believe you need the rotors from the LS. i dont know if the back plate fits but most likely you just cut it off.

Your first post mentioned ls400 to supra brakes as a common swap. Don't mention things in YOUR post if you do NOT want them discussed. :chairshot: :pirate::censored:

That way you won't have to waste your time whining later on. :cries:

Live in peace? You are from texas right? Iraq is very peaceful. Thanks.

Talking about brakes swaps?

Writing about brake swaps.

School is out.

That's funny, I tried to fit the front caliphers from my SC on my 94 LS. It didn't look like a direct fit one was bigger than the other.

Caspergsx:

I need to get rid of the front and rear brakes (minus the dust shields) from my SC. I believe they should be an exact fit. I can sell you the bunch relatively cheap if you're still interested.

That is just it. The direct swap is the 95+ LS calipers, and yes the caliper is larger. With this swap you need to change your rims. SC factory rims do not clear those calipers. A good fix most guys run are the Supra TT rims.

man you are in TX... you could probably find some Supra rims for about $500.(supraforums.com) You could get 95+LS calipers and rotor for under $300. Great upgrade they will throw you through the windshield. A must for future HP mods...
