The front brakes do the majority of the work, so a rear upgrade won't make nearly as much of a difference apart from aesthetics. While the Supra TT rear rotor is larger, the caliper is still a dual-piston design like the stock GS rear caliper. I'd also be unsure if the Supra TT's rear rotor hat dimensions are a good fit with the GS's parking brake assembly.

The TT rear calipers have a different bolt pattern than the fronts and will not fit without a custom made adapter. As far as the parking brake, I bought a TT rear rotor a I tried on my car. The inner diameter is exactly the same as the GS so the parking brake will work with no issues at all. Its not really a big upgrade since its only marginally larger than factory and its a lot of work to make the caliper fit.

Yeah they bolt right on. The only modification is you need to trim a little off the dust shield or just take it off completely. Also, u need at least 17" wheels with a high offset and/or high disk wheel. But u don't need rca's like with the ls400's. You can also just get oem dust shields for a twin turbo supra if you don't wanna trim or remove stock shield.
