I hear stock rotors for '90-'92LS are not very good.
So getting cross-drilled TRD rotors for less than the price of the stock rotors...I see no reason not to go with the cross-drilled TRD rotors! And if you can put them on yourself like Lvangundy (who else thought he was ivangundy b4 he capitalized the L?), you'll save a ton over going to the Lexus dealer and having them rip you off on installation and OEM parts.

Hey,
Sorry guys, I can't give exact instructions on how to change them out, becuase I actually only did about half of the work. I watched mostly, but from what I can remember it first involves removing the tires, then removing the brake caliper unit by un bolting 2 bolts from the inside of the wheel well area (closest to the engine.) The rotor is exposed and held in by two philips screws. Unscrew these (tough) and pull the rotor off. Repeat for the other side. Be careful not to change them after the car has been recently driven, the rotors are VERY hot.
Like I said I didn't do the main job, so I can't give a good description of the process.
Anotehr thing they are not TRD, but an offshoot brand manufactured in Italy I think. I had seearched online for the brand (which I forgot now) and nothing came up.
Dunno!
