Yes, the ISF Rotor is a few mm too wide to fit in the opening between the caliper. Looks like some grinding to widen the opening on the caliper will be needed to make it work. Maybe the Supra TT rear rotor is a better choice?????. I have them on my 99 SC400, they are 324mm though.

So whats the goal for this car? Is all the money and modifications going into big brakes just for the look, or is this car being built for any kind of performance purpose? Don't get me wrong. Its all cool stuff and the car will look great. But wondering what the "build plan" is that this thread is under for. Stancing a GS is nothing new after all. Lowering/suspension work, rims, brake kits. Looks cool.. Any engine work going to be done? Turbo or N/A build planned? Any track use planned?

what's this comment for? let the guy do whatever he wants to do to his car.

maybe he's taking it slow?

maybe he's undecided?

Its crazy that your post are exactly what’s needed in the build thread great information, pictures, description on how it’s done etc... But now that’s not build thread worthy. I’m so confused right now 🤦🏽*♂️

Sweet, love the color you chose for the calipers. Can't wait to see what the rear setup would look like.
