F-sport rear bbk install...caliper bracket wont fit. What changed?
Just like the title says. Tried installing my rear f-sport bbk and the brackets that go on the hub don't fit properly. The spacing on the holes is almost too close together and the bracket itself seems too thick to fit between the rotor and the hub. Other then the positioning of the caliper does anyone know what has changed on the rear setup? I will call Sewell in the morning and then Stop Tech if I need to, but I was wondering if anyone could shed some light on this...

Side note, Stop Tech were a bunch of a**holes helping with this...Sewell was great.

Update for anyone who is interested...I got the rears to fit by ordering the brackets for Stop Tech's BBK for the 2013 GS350. The caliper on the GS and 2014 IS are exactly the same, so the bracket for that kit fits perfectly. The calipers for that kit are the ST60 and ST40 as well, so the caliper fits like it should. For those that are interested in the part numbers, PM me and I'll pass it on to you.

Still waiting to see how Lexus & StopTech are working out those logistics..
