So, I've spent my hours reading old threads about the Supra brake kit and the LS400 brake upgrades to the point that I'm saturated. Not 100% educated,...but mentally saturated for now.
I was thinking very seriously of buying this front brake kit and wondered what you guys thought of it. http://www.suprastore.com/lexsupfronbr.html
I need a kit,...I was going to piece things together but I never really found calipers or rotors of stock supra sizing that I knew were good quality. I just don't know enough, nor do I want to spend $2500-$3500.
By the way,....I never found an answer/thread regarding whether we could get a larger rotor on the back. Did I miss something there?

I'll go check out the Classifieds but I need me some brakes like right now. Been driving with heavy squeal for quite a while - in fact, I parked it and am driving a hoopty until the brakes are replaced.
Vwynn - i think you're right on the pad options.
Sam430 or anyone - what is "RCA" I've seen that abbv. a few times here now and I just don't know what it is.

RCA = Roll Center Adapters (aka Super Stroke "SS" Kit)
You will need front RCAs if you run the LS400 calipers because they will hit the steering knuckle....they run for $180 + shipping + tax + paypal.

thanks everyone. I found that kit in the Classifieds a few pages in, looks good.
Anyone have any input regarding the rear brakes and increased rotor size?
