Almost 3/4 inches bigger or so. Dont think it would fit stock GS rotors.

yes, i believe you'll need RCA's to install these rotors properly. with the supra calipers, they're direct bolt on.

FYI
The LS400 rotors are 12.9 and the supra TT ones are 13.1 . Could just be a measuring flaw.

The pads surfaces are identical but the Supra ones have a different backing that attaches to the caliper. While the LS backing has a slot for the brake pad wear sensor.

2ls brakes are kinda long, so it will hit the tie-rod joint without the RCA to "lift" the brake and hub assembly 1/4-1/2 inch higher from the lower ball joint.

surface area wise, JZA80s are bigger.

My LS400 pad looks like the yellow one on the left.
I have no clue what the one on the right is.
The project Mu pads for the supra TT I compared looked nothing like the one on the right.
