were those previously on a supra?

Its interesting how the surface area of the rotor where the pads will contact is smaller in surface area than supra TT rotors. I'm very interested to see the install and review. good luck!

These were on a GS300 with20" wheels before. I think they can have smaller surface area for 3 reasons the new rotors are half the weight as the oem tt. , the 8 pistons vs 4,and the 1" bigger diameter gives the new brakes a bit more leverage.They feel so much better but I will have to get the TT master cylinder

TT master cylinder and NA master cylinder is the same as SC300 master cylinder.

Correct me if i'm wrong.
