Hi, everyone has anyone install Toyota Supra TT rear breaks on there GS? I saw a set on craigslist for $250 and was thinking of buying them. I just want more info on CL members if they installed them on their GS? Any info or advice is appreciated!

They're 2 piston calipers just like the stock GS ones, so not really worth it. I'm pretty sure they don't fit as well. Maybe someone else can chime in on that though.

They don't fit without a custom bracket

I only knew of one person who has done this but he was in Japan and he had a good connect with a machinist.

The GS and TT supra are both 2 piston fixed calipers, but the Supras extend further out, with a larger rotor. This has more leverage for grabbing the rotor, with better stopping. However the front brakes do more of the work anyways.

For having a custom bracket made or CNC'd it probably wouldn't be worth it unless you had a lot of money to throw around.

Most guys only do that kindof stuff for fitting huge OEM front brakes on our cars from other cars

Not worth it to swap unless you track the car hard and need more rotor area for heat reasons.

I have a friend that he made the LS430 calipers on his GS300, but he use it because his car is a racing car. That calipers LS430 calipers have 4 piston but like my good friend GS400V8 and everyone said, However the front brakes do more of the work anyways. If you no use for track or racing it's not worth spend the money and more important, the time doing it. MHO

you need to upgrade the fronts, not the rears in the gs. GS has two piston rear.
