REAR supra TT brake fit on a 2GS???
Hello all,
Got a question for all the brake experts out there.. will the REAR supra TT brakes and rotors bolt-on fit a 2nd Gen GS???
If not, anyone know what kind of modding would you have to do?
thanks in advance for the feedback..

I'm putting these on my build... we're making brackets for the rear. If there's enough people say 10 or so I might shell out and make some brackets after. We'll see.
Basically the rotors fit... calipers will work with a custom bracket so that they're spaced correctly and don't hit anything. There's a few threads on here if you search about others inquiring.

I am not sure yet how the rotors will fit with the GS hub. I'll find out soon enough when I take apart the rear brakes. I may have wrongly assumed that the drum would be the same size which would suck. But if that's the case I'll just find a rear drum assembly from a MKIV TT and swap it in. I won't be eliminating the parking brake that's for sure!

i'm thinking about swapping out my rears to supra TT as well... since stop tech doesn't have a BBK for the rear of the GS.... keep us updated

Yah this is on the list after the car gets some downtime - likely around mid Sept. It will be simple to mock up and produce just not sure how much it will cost me. I'm not a company or anything so I'd just be doing a few sets for serious people if anything.

Can you elaborate some more into how the rotors will fit? From observation, the outer disc will fit but the parking brake that's built into the hub will be different from the supra TT and 2GS. I'm guessing that you'll be eliminating your parking brake therefore only using the cable to engage the rear caliper?
The bracket to adapt the TT caliper will require adapting the bolt spacing about an inch further apart than the 2GS, plus the spacing to compensate for the larger diameter rotor.

I am interested to know if anyone found a way to make these work. If a bracket was successfully made and if they were ever, or will be produced with enough interest. I have an opportunity to swipe a set of rear Supra TT calipers for low $$.

I did find those. $250 bucks. Might wait for a sale.
