Default SC4 Front Caliper Bracket Bolt to Bolt Dimension

I just found some giant sumitomo calipers and need quick help. If you have SC4/Supra/LS callipers sitting on the bench, what is the distance between centers of caliper mounting bolt holes?

If you already have them on a bench, the most accurate way in figuring this out is taking it to a machine shop and have them measure it. You can get numbers here but you're plenty safer to have professionals measure it for your application. If you didn't have a set in hand it would be a different case.

Thanks for the advice, I do not need accurate measurement. I just need rough number from SC4 bracket or Supra anybody can take with basic tools like ruler.

I made a quick measurement off my 98 SC300, it came out to roughly 118mm. I know you were looking for the measurements off a SC400. I can't recall if all of this is correct, but here's a try. I know the SC4 has larger brakes over the SC3, and the SC4 brakes are some what of an upgrade for SC3 guys. I believe they are bolt on. So the 118mm measurement should be the same for the SC4 cars, since the caliper bracket would be swapped over as well. Hopefully that's correct.

Yep, that's what I just got too (118mm) off some brackets from an Endless BBK for a Supra/SC that had been installed on an SC300. If you don't have a metric tape or slide caliper, it's between 4-5/8" and 4-11/16".
