Nice start! Let the modding begin! Sounds like easy fixes.

Ls400 Calipers with a little grind fit our cars, theyre lighter, have better brake feel, and use bigger rottor with 4 piston calipers vs single piston calipers stock.

I feel dumb. I googled it.

The good news is, I saw an LS400 in salvage today. If the brakes are still there, I'll have them tomorrow.

Before I waste money...is this mod intended for front only or should I be pulling all 4?

For the front only and they need to be the 2nd gen LS400 from 1995-2000, the 4 pot calipers. If the calipers are still on them grab them, and don't forget the front rotors as well AND the mounting hardware..You will need all of this. Good luck ,they are getting hard to find but are a GREAT MOD!

Keep in mind once you go ls calipers you may need either spacers or different wheels with wilder ofsets. The wheels you have may not fit anymore.

Yeah, no way these wheels will fit. I wouldn't be putting them on right away anyway. Need to disassemble calipers and powdercoat before even thinking about installation.
