Default BBK for 3GS430

Howdy,

1) Has anyone installed the ISF brakes front and rear? or just front?
2) What kits are everyone using?

Any feedback on them?

I'm working with my brother (who bought my car) on doing the 3GS. The stock brakes haven't done fared very well in our opinion.

thanks

Please search, this has been discussed. Lexus F-sport BBK will debut in June. IS-F should fit but no one has done it yet.

People are running different kits from Project Mu, to Rotara, to Brembo, to the IS-350 F-sport brakes, StopTech, etc.

anything that fits on the 2is will fit on the 3gs (caliper bracket wise), including is-f. sewell lexus has been selling is-f brakes for the 3gs for a while i believe

officially brembo doesn't have anything for the 3gs yet, but they do have application for 2is, which again, caliper brackets will fit on the 3gs (other stuff i won't comment)

Ill stick with either the Brembo OEM ala ISF or run the StopTech, Ive never heard of the other brands 1sicklex mentioned inside or outside of racing.


It stands to reason however that if the IS350 calipers are the exact same as the GS430 calipers, then if those mounts are the same... it should work no problem adapting the IS-F brakes as the hubs are probably equivalent.

On a side note: If the ISF brakes work straight out of the box, then probably all the ISF option work too... :drool: ZR31's

Off to scour for data!

Thanks rominl.

I have been running the Rotora BBK on my GS for almost a year now. And I still love it and looks sick.
