You can do a search to get more details but one of the first thing you need to check is your wheel. If you have aftermarket, you have to make sure it is high disc and that it will clear the calipers. Those Supra calipers are huge. If you have stock wheels. you will need to go wheel shopping. Other than that, I believe it is a direct bolt on.

first of all you need to get new wheels. the supra tt (basically most aftermarket brakes) will not fit under the stock wheel. you need to get one carefully.

then you need the caliper, you need to get new pads, and new rotors. the rotors area larger than the stock one. you might also want to get ss line since you will need to bleed the whole system anyway, so why not.

and what do you mean brake pad bracket? the supra tt brake (front) is a direct replacement, so you can put on the brakes using the same bolt pattern on the stock gs no problem

so basically ur saying that i could take on the 2 bolts that hold the claliper... and then use that 2 bolts and reinstall the tt's claipers... the thing i was talkin about, is when u take the 2 bolts for the cliaper... there is another 2 bolts u need to take off for the rotor to come off (the thing that holds the pads), and rotors off... do i need to get that bracket that holds the brake pads, and rotor... or just the claiper... and yes i do have to stock wheels on it right now... but i'm goin to get everthing for the brakes system now... and when i get my wheels there is something to show... i'm gettin adr sterlings (chrome) 19in, they are 19x8 (what size do u guy's perfer... thank again

Man,

Do you even know how SupraTT calipers look like? You are talking about the GS float design calipers. With 2 pistons on one side, you do need to remove all 4 bolts to take off the rotors. The SupraTT 4 pot claipers, its a fix unit with 2 piston on each side, remove the caliper then you can take off the rotors.

BTW if you are going with ADR why not get 20" becuase the tires for 19" are more expensive so you end up spend about the same. And you need 8.5 to be the correct width size.
