Nice Work Luis!!! 
Well... ON PAPER
I have already been able to some what confirm that...
the IS-F Front caliper sits a bit more inward when compared to the IS350 caliper..
When measured from wheel Hub to Caliper Face(s)..
Which would mean that the Front IS-F Calipers should have more wheel clearance than the front OEM IS350 mono block caliper (below)..

that is actually incorrect. the f-sports are 6 piston calipers as well and the rotors are cast iron. there is a carbon ceramic coming soon but i have not seen it available nor prices posted anywhere but even those rotors still come with 6 piston calipers

so theres a chance for stock 18"s to fit? :O!. i just put 10mm spacers on my front rims, so its all about diameter for me i think. how much bigger are the IS-F brakes overall vs IS350 brakes

Oh man
If somebody could make these work on the SC, I'd be all over this. I know there has been work to make SupraTTs fit on the IS300. Any possibility the opposite could be done to make these IS-F brakes fit on the SC/Supra?
Does somebody have an old IS250 caliper laying around to check for fitment and modification.
First SC on the planet with mono-block 6 piston Brembos from the IS-F.... that would be bananas.

Great price here folks
Instead of buying the more expensive Brembo branded kits that can easily run 5 g's plus, you can have these that state "LEXUS" for a lot less.
If someone would make a bracket for the SC3/4's that can accomodate these calipers, I'd be all for it. I suppose running an 18" diameter rim and up is a must with these...
