Hey, Before this post i have been searching all around to find my question so here it goes. I realized My rotors and pads were shot, so went to the parts store an got new rotors and pads for the front of the car. Well when i installed the oem rotors, they were about 3/4" smaller then the ones already on the car. (the sc300 rotors are like 10.75 inches were the other that are on the car is 11.5s or so) When i bought the car the owner said they switch with another sc, and was wondering if the sc300 rotors are different size from the sc400 rotors and calipers. I about to upgrade to all new if i cant figure this out. Any help is really apreciated.

Thanks for all the chime in, in advance,

Chris

same thing happen to me, i have a 1994 sc300 and i got a brake rotor and caliper from a 95 or 96 and it was bigger so im assuming same thing happen to you except urs were smaller, try a different year or sc300 and sc400... try that and let us know.

Well just got back from the brake place an found out that the sc300 are smaller than the sc400 in the same year. My 96 sc300 are supposed to be 10.75 diameter and the sc400 are like 11.60. Well at least I know about the front, just waiting to find out whats wrong with the rear. Thanks anyways.

just ran into my buddy that i got the front brakes off of. he had a sc400, looks like you already found that out though. as far as the rears, i never touched them so i have no idea.

try giving the parts store ur vin #. some systems utilize the vin to pinpoint ur exact specs.

YES sc400 brakes are bigger than sc300 brakes...by how much I don't know. If your changing brakes, change to supra tt or ls400 4 pistons brakes

FRONT BRAKE: sc400 front brakes is bigger than sc300 not by much, still the same 2 pots caliper.
REAR BRAKE: On certain year of sc300 I think 92 - 96 the rear is also smaller, this fits 15" rims. on 97 - mid 00 the rear is bigger same as sc400.
