Supra TT Rims(93-97)
LS Rims (95 and up)

I can't think of any other oem toyota/lexus rims that fit

scgerg300

Will these brakes fit with my new wheels 19x9.5 +22? te37s?

Measure the distance from the spoke to the stock rotor I think it shoul be 2.75". The distance is listed in earlier posts.

I just got some winter tires put on; '92 SC400 wheels. Will the LS400 brake calipers fit under these?

SO it is safe to assume that LS400 and SC400 brakes are completely different then. That is ODD that Lexus would do that.

i converted to ls400 calipers over a year ago. used the same sc300 brake lines w/ ebc green pads. it takes veyr little braking effort to stop the car compared with stock caliper. my brake feels very mushy/soft. I always thought this was normal being that these calipers came from an ls400 (old man's car). my buddy drove my car and thought that it should have a greater initial bite. anyone here using stock sc300 brake lines? how does your pedal feel?

I converted mine to TT brakes front and rear with ss lines, hawk pads, bled them out 2x after the initial install, and bled again a week later. Went through two GIANT cans of brake fluid in the process....and I still have the stupid mushy pedel feel.

I'm guessing the master cylinder has to be the problem???

It's a common issue when upgrading to a more powerful braking system. The master cylinder isn't designed to provide that much fluid. You need a higher capacity master cylinder to get the brake feel back.

Which master cylinder should we use and how difficult is it to replace the stock sc300 brake master cylinder?

are the rotors the same from the 1st gen to 2nd gen LS

To get rid of that mushy feeling just get ss lines. Simple. No need for the master cylinder change. I have the full tt setup and it stops hard, a bit too hard sometimes. The ss lines changed the way the brakes felt, i'm not saying it helped in performance but it sure felt better.
