Default SC430 Brake Upgrade to Supra or Better??

Hello there I'm Andreas. New here. I just acquired a 2002 SC430. I was wanting to upgrade the brakes (rotors & Calipers) to something more impressive. I just ordered new tires and wheels 20's Staggered 9's and 10.5's with 245/35/20 and 275/30/20 tires. I am still debating on which set of coil-overs GODSPEED or Megan EZII to go with but will make that decision. (input please here if you can suggest)

If anyone can give me the year or part # of the supra or the supra brakes (rotors and calipers) that will work on all four corners (fronts and backs) of my SC430 that would be great. Or better yet a part # and brand of an after market Supra direct bolt on brake set (rotors and calipers) that would work. Slotted and Cross drilled preferably. Also not sure but is the diameter of the Supra brakes larger than that of the OEM SC430?

Thank You in advance

Andreas

I believe ShawnOK did the Supra brake mod...do an advance search with his name and the words Supra and brake.
the stickies have the search instructions.

i put some D2 coil overs on my 2002. The 2007 is still OEM and will leave it that way!

BTW, Welcome to Club Lexus!!!
