Default Supra TT rear caliper upgrade

I know that the Supra TT rear caliper would not fit the UCF10/11 rear bracket. Anyone know if the TT rear caliper would fit on UCF20 or UCF30? Can we swap the rear axle carrier over from other lexus model like the SC or GS that can fit with the TT rear?

The Supra TT has the same rear caliper and pads as a 95-2000 LS400.

This is true. When I ordered EBC Red Stuff pads for my '97 LS400, the box said "93-'97 Supra TT" on it.

I was uncertain myself, and I asked Pure about it. Sure enough, they're the same pads/calipers.

actually while the pads are pretty much the same the TT calipers are different.

TT has 2 piston rears (n/a has single) whereas the 2LS has single piston rear brakes.

So can the TT rear caliper bolt up to 95-00 rear?
I'm hoping it can fit the same bracket and hopefully I can swap over the whole 95-00 LS rear axle carrier assembly over.

Haha I agree man. I've check out the SC rear Axle hub assembly. Totally different . Now I'm moving on. I'll keep everyone posted if I can get this solved.
