Drove to the body shop and dropped off the LS400 front calipers to be painted.... Take a week or longer...

Replaced the fog light bulbs and made a surprise discovery that my calipers say "Supra" on them. Don't know enough yet to know if they're legit Supra calipers or what...

^^^ Those could very possibly be the NA supra brakes which are just a lateral move, not an upgrade or it's a decal someone put there before. Who knows?

The one thing that has me leaning towards them being from a Supra is the fact that the emblem is not a sticker. Can't say for sure since I have no prior experience with them.

Those aren't supra TT brakes, probably NA Supra brakes.

Supra TT Brakes look like this.



The Supra NA brakes are nearly identical to SC brakes. They're very likely NA Supra brakes that you have, like Kris said.

I'm really sorry to hear that, I hope everything works out for you.

I painted (G2 white) my LS400 front and TT Supra rear calipers. I'm finally about to change my stock brakes out.

Steel braided lines
Eline Slotted Rotors (LS400 front/TT rear)

Installed a set of Tein Flex Z coilovers on my newly acquired 2000 SC300. Throwing some 17x9/10.5" wheels in the next couple of days.

Just got done drooling over a mint 92 factory 5 speed selling on ebay for $6K with only 68000 miles on the odometer. The listing ends in a day and I wonder what the final price will be
