Default LS460 front caliper vs IS350 front caliper

I was sold on the is350 front brake upgrade option on my 06 GS, but I came across some info from a buddy about brakes from a LS460 being a better option. is there anyone who has done this mod option or that has any detailed info on the subject?

IS350 calipers are better than our GS?

06's have smaller calipers than the 07's-up! as far my car goes I bought new rotors for the larger calipers, so they will definitely fit.
