Looking for Info on the Supra TT Rear Caliper Bracket
After much research I still can't find the exact measurements of fabricating the rear caliper brackets without actually measuring them n getting them fabricated. Frustration literally led to my first post because I've been on this forum for a while without doing any mods but just learning. I work in a shop so if worse comes to worse I'll have one of my Master Techs fabricate a bracket for me but problem is because the caliper is a fixed caliper, one mistake can lead to me changing my "rear suspension" as the tech said. Odds are he's talking about my hub assembly.
Sorry about the long first paragraph. I'm just looking for answers. Any info would def help i got a few links with some info from the forums. Also I wanted to confirm that the front calipers were direct bolts on. I decided to take off my dust shield entirely besides shaving it

P.S.
As far as my job I work as a Service Advisor, I turned my hobby which is cars into a job to hold me down through college

Super late to a response as I just left the rear brakes oem. They are the same amount of pistons but I would like both the front and rear brakes to match as I have wheels that show the brake set up.
I'm still interested in case someone made these but from what I've heard I would need a machine shop.
Thanks

You can do that now, just read up what JoeMG did in this thread.

Yup, I found custom brackets for LS430 rear calipers & Supra TT rear rotors on yahoo Japan and sent them to XAT so they could offer them to everyone. I have these paired with LS460 fronts & ISF rotors. I'm very happy with the look and the performance. (full disclosure, I don't work for XAT or Suprastore and I don't receive any compensation, I just wanted to help the tuner community for this car and improve my brakes)

It would have been nice to have a rear rotor that was a little bigger to fill the wheel (Supra rotors are only about .6" larger than OEM rear, but they're vented which is a big plus), but that just wasn't possible. Still looks better than stock and these calipers are all aluminum monoblocks with bigger pistons (43mm vs 35mm).
