IS400 Posted November 17, 2007 Share Posted November 17, 2007 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.

caspergsx Posted November 19, 2007 Author Share Posted November 19, 2007 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 ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jzz30 Posted November 19, 2007 Share Posted November 19, 2007 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. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

UCF3 Posted November 21, 2007 Share Posted November 21, 2007 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. Email @ ucf3loc@netscape.net Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can sell you the bunch relatively cheap if you're still interested. Email @ ucf3loc@netscape.net 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.

caspergsx Posted November 27, 2007 Author Share Posted November 27, 2007 dam i can get a hold of some 94 ls calipers ,, so they are not a upgrade ,,what i need are the 95+ dam i dont want to buy rims also lol i guess i will stick with the stockers for now Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Great upgrade they will throw you through the windshield. A must for future HP mods... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
