So I just get word back from Night Pager and found out that the price for the brackets also includes machining down the calipers making it possible to bolt up because the brackets alone are not enough. I suppose the price is justifiable.

I haven't checked in awhile. Did you guys make bracket adapters for these yet?
I can get them done on my CNC as I have half the dims programmed LOL. I have done many brake swaps and hands down the Lexus LS430 calipers are the best bank for the buck swap I've ever put on a Porsche..... They are better designed than the 2 piece Brembos at 1/4th the cost.....and they stop my V8 powered 944 with ease.

MEATY.....Puts the Porsche crap to shame LOL
When you add 4 cylinders, you need some bigger brakes.....

hmm, maybe I need to finally do this now that I have a scanner. looks like they are readily available and affordable. would probably like a larger rotor that the boxster s though.

The BoxsterS is a 318 x 28mm rotor. I made the 944 kit because the rotors/pr are $130 shipped. I did design a set of LS430 adapters for using the larger 928 GTS rotors (322 x 32mm) but they are $400 pr..... and way heavier. I am designing rotor hats to cut the weight of the BoxsterS rotors down to 10.5 lbs compared to the solid steel rotors at 20.5 LBS....

Old thread hopefully some of you guys are still around …
XSCHOP- Great work there!
Do you guys know about any brackets/ adapters to do a Lexus IS250/350 to Porsche calipers? Has anyone done that conversion?
