Also, the 2001 models had a larger piston bore for the master cylinder, and the 3IS/3GS probably got it upsized again. This alone would affect the pedal feel combined with the IS350 you drove being lighter than any other cars.
good info! Also add to that that 350 is/gs brakes have larger caliper pistons as well.

Contact Figs Engineering, Battle Version, and HardRace Global. Maybe they can assist you if it's lucrative enough.

So Sladkix got me a set of brackets to install the 07-11 GS350 front calipers on the 2 Gen GS. I am waiting on the rest of my front suspension parts and will tackle it all at once. I will post some pics and provide feed back on the performance. Be patient, it would be a few weeks before I get it all done.

I'm still interested in this. Glad I haven't bought LS brakes yet. Will any other sets of adaptors be made available for sale?

I have not been able to get anyone to make extra sets of these brackets. If Andrea is ok with it and you can get a shop to make some I might be willing to use mine since I have not installed them yet.

On his Supra NA, Tavarish put on ISF rotors, and the Brembos from a Grand Cherokee SRT/8 using adapter brackets from Eximious Custom Parts.

Any compatibility with the GS3/GS4?
