is it just me who HATES the rear caliper on the IS350, the fronts are great but the rears look terrible.

I am speaking based on the cosmetics. I want to upgrade these rear brakes but not get a full bbk, since it really isnt needed. was thinking of getting the wilwood calipers for the rear and swapping them out, is this possible? if so, which would swap right in for the oems? any constrictive advice or opinions please?

Thanks in advanced!

I've heard of some attempting to put the 4gs f-sport calipers on the is.

Not sure if anyone was successful however. The 4gs F-Sport brake disks and calipers are slightly bigger than the 3is.

I believe the RC350 F-Sport has the same style brakes, so maybe you can look into those too.

LS430/Celsior UCF30 rear 2-pot monoblocks with custom brackets + Supra JZA80 324 mm disks = tested and approved by many Japanese 3IS owners.

do you know if those rear calipers will have any issues with wheel clearance? would i need to change my offsets?

Thanks

Wheel clearance is about the same, should have no problems.

I'm interested in this as well, only problem is, how much will the custom bracket cost?

Imprezario

Some local shops can make these brackets for You, I think. Ordering these parts from Japan is toooooo expensive.

just out of curiosity, how would we go about installing ISF calipers / rotor , on a 3IS , would need mounting brackets? what else?

I'm in the same boat with OP.

Do you have a source for this anywhere? Would honestly like to go down this same path, but not order the wrong parts, lol.

Also would like to see any supported claims for braking bias etc.

More information please.

How to get this custom bracket?
Or no need for custom bracket and it all bolt on like factory?

Yes,this is custom brackets. We designed it and test on my IS. It works fine.
There is some information (in Russian, but google translate helps you )

I think, we can discuss sharing drawing not for commercial use.

is this caliper installed on a 3rd gen Lexus IS?
if so, can you make a set and sell?
