Haven't gotten them yet. The guys at EBC take a while to do stuff I guess. Hopefully they'll be on their way soon.

tpham86 if you don't have anything relevant to say regarding this brake thread, don't say anything at all. Go throw yourself in front of a bus or pound sand.

I got them in yesterday, and I'll probably try to throw them in once my midterms are over in the next couple weeks. This weekend I'm helping a friend do spark plugs on his subie, so I'll probably be tied up most of the weekend haha. Maybe I'll try if I have time. I'll keep you guys updated.

So I worked on the TT pads today and I managed to fit one in so far. It takes quite a bit of dremeling, but nothing too extreme. Gonna try to finish up tomorrow and have a detailed write up by Monday or Tuesday. Stay tuned.

So they didn't end up fitting. The pads themselves were too thick for my rotors. The rotor just barely didn't fit between the pads. Different pads my work, but the ebc yellowstuff were too thick.

Let me see if I'm understanding this correctly...and I may not, so please correct me if/where I'm wrong.

Supra TT calipers are heavier b/c they are Iron/Alum
LS400 calipers are Alum only

Every perf. pad/rotor combo imaginable is avail. for the Supra, not the case for the LS

The Supra caliper is wider to accept thicker pads and thicker directional rotors

The LS rotor is only slightly smaller OD, but may be thinner?

Do the same brake lines fit?
