Lexus SC300 brakes, need help please.
Are the brake calipers on a 1998 Lexus SC300, the same on a 2000 Lexus SC300?

They are different. 99-00 sc300 has different part number than a 1998 sc300.

SC400 has larger diameter and thicker rotors than SC300 probably due to being a heavier model.

Take few pics of the caliper all around, I'll take some pics of my 2000 when I get home, so you can see and maybe compare if they are the same or not
