Default Futura Design Big Brake kit. 8Pot Front and 6Pot Rear

Up for sale is my set of Futura Design Big Brakes in Gold anodized color.

8Pot front with 380mm rotor
6Pot Rear with 356 mm rotor
Steel braided lines
Bracket for 2GS

Setup has only seen 700 miles the most, so rotors and pads are in almost new condition. Selling because these won't fit my new project.

Install is a direct bolt on for a second gen GS300/400/430.
I believe you can purchase the bracket for your specific car if you do not have a 2nd gen GS300.

Onto the pics:

Front:

20in OZ futuras using 25mm spacer


19x9 -4 Step lip Leon Hardiritt Herzog, High disk using 5mm spacer due to the bolts on the back of the wheel slightly hitting the rotor.


Rears:
20in OZ futura mid disk using 5mm spacer


19x11 +11 Step lip Leon Hardiritt Herzog, High disk using 5mm for the same reason above



I am asking for $3600 shipped OBO or $3400 picked up

If you are using paypal I can split the fees with the buyer.

Thanks for looking!

Where are these brake kits manufactured? What type of pistons? What's the rotor thickness, how many vane?

I'm not sure where exactly they're made. I contacted the company to chime in here.

Here's what I got from their site:

"All Futura Design calipers are T6061 forged aluminum. Mounting hardware Brackets are High pressure cast iron. Calipers are equipped with a quick release brake pad retainer bracket.

The pistons in Futura Design calipers vary in size, this method is used to stabilize surface pressure in pads and improve braking balance, Thus giving you a consistent and frictionless braking experience."

Also these are the same bbk's that 326 power in Japan sells/uses.

From what I've understood they are made in Taiwan and are made by Alliance. They sure do look like the 326 brakes like mentioned as well.

They look sick for sure. And at 380mm on the front that's damn 15" rotors, and the rear at 356mm is a 14", defiantly hot **** on a GS.

These are not made by Alliance.

I'm about 99% sure Joe's rotors are 380x32 and 356x32.

Will they fit with an 18" wheel?
How do these compare to stock Supra TT brakes?
