the mounts on the supra radiator do not line up at all with the gs mounts. the lower mounts are closer together on the car than they are on the radiator and you have to drill holes in the upper radiator support and use nuts/bolts to line up the top mounts. not impossible to get around, but not a direct drop in either.


i saw at least 3 sets of front TT brakes for sale on the first page of the sc400/300 marketplace.
