I believe more people if upgrade and don't go all out .. use the ls400 caliper it has more pistons then the Gs and is cheaper than supra ...

130k shouldn't be a huge issue if your just daily driving ..

Someone who knows more can chim in ..

You shouldn't even have to change the calipers. The only time you would ever want to do anything with them is if the sliding pin or the piston itself gets seized. In that case, you can rebuild them with OEM parts for about $30. There is no need to get new OEM calipers.

A direct replacement of the OEM calipers utilizing the OEM rotors? None exist.

I would highly recommend going with the LS400 or Supra BBKs. Brake feel and responsiveness is a lot better than the OEM setup.

FYI, if you go with LS400 brakes, you will need to do some grinding or install RCAs. If you get Supra TT brake, they will be a direct fit.
