Question

I remember someone did this mod to their GS. Is that a direct plug in? Will the stock rotor fit? How much am I looking at? Also, what other parts, pads, rotor, did you install at the same time? And lastly, where did you find the parts?

thx

Gary,

Howz it going?
I have asked Steve Ganz at Carson this question before;


"Steve,

Thanks for the parts.

Hey, I have a friend wanting to go the less expensive route of brake upgrade. The Supra TT brakes are suppose to fit the GS. How much are the brake calipers, the rotors, and the pads? Fronts only.

Thanks.

Regards,
Calvin



Calvin,

All the parts come to $627.60 after your discount:

Pads-$41.58
Rotors-$68.98 x 2
Calipers-$224.03 x 2

Let me know if you want them.

You may also want to order a set of stainless steel lines, which would run you ~ $150 from TRD or RMM. Steve can also get you the TRD GS lines. Of course you need replacement fluid. I use Motul.

If you want an even cheaper route, I know some Supra owners who swapped out their brakes for Brembos. All you need is new pads and turn the rotors. If interested, you can email me at QBranchCars@home.com
