Default Supra TT front brake swap on my JDM Aristo

the swap was pretty easy,rotors were a straight bolt on.had to trim the backing plate a bit so it clears the clalipers.i recomend having custom SS brake lines made.the stock lines are to short,the supra are to long.i used teh supra lines but will have custom lines made up soon


this is how they look behind a set of 20`s,the calipers clear the rims by a 16th on an inch

That is CLEAN!! I wanna do the conversion, but sadly, my wallet is probably only going to allow the LS400 brakes..

Holy big pictures!
But seriously i would love to do this to my Aristo as i think this is the best big brake option for the price.
Did you do front and rears?
Nice touch with the Aristo decals.

Hey just to let you guys know partsgeek.com sells the stock calipers and rotors for the TT Supra if anyone is interested, and price isn't too crazy. They also sell some pain in the neck to find OEM parts for our cars too!
