that's because there's not THAT much point in doing the rear 2LS swap. the 2LS has similar 1piston brakes in the rear, the Supra TT has 2 piston rears. and iirc no, it won't fit. (mounting brackets are different)

true enough. after looking at the rear caliper/pad/rotor specs they are all better on the 2ls, but only slightly.
