Default Brembo Kit fitment

Hi all. I'm getting my SC300 next week. I plan to use the 13.1" Brembo brakes (calipers, rotors, etc) from my S14 on the SC. The question is: Besides getting new adapters for the calipers, will they fit? The bolt pattern is the same. 5x114.3. Thanks.

well... this is gonna be a totally custom swap. i highly doubt anyone here has even tried to swap out a big brake kit from an S14 to the JZ330. I do know that the wheel offsets for the S14 and for the SC are totally different so youll maybe run into clearance problems. The only way you will know is to try it. My advice to you is.... Goodluck!

Nice equips btw..

Thanks John. I'll do a trial and error or even call Brembo myself ..I've always wanted those wheels since they came out old school. The story behind those were that my brother bought them off some guy with an SC300, put them on his Supra, I put them on my mkiv (car before), and slapped them on the S14...so I know these one's will fit !

btw John what city do you live in, your name sounds familiar.

Hey John I live in SD too you wouldn't have noticed my SC as I haven't started on the exterior yet but I have never seen yours around and every SC I see I take a look at and I would defenitely have noticed yours
What part of SC you in man, just wondering, plus trying to locate CL members in my area so if I ever get stumped really bad on a DIY I will have people to get in touch with. Oh I live in Coronado btw.
PEACE

How long have you been in colorado? Where in SD did you live? I picked my SC about 5 months ago. I used to live in Mira Mesa, but I have recently moved up to Carlsbad. My parents still live in miramesa so i still go down to SD about once a week or so.

If you need any help on anything, feel free to PM me. Im pretty much on here 24/7.

haha yeah man Coronado the island. Anyway I work in mission valley and am pretty much on here when I am pretending to work. I am doing supra LCA's and Supra TT strut and springs soon, I'll let you know how it goes, I have had my lex for about the same time as you have had yours. Also if you ever hear of a decent bomex kit especially the front for sale in the area let me know.
PEACE
