do u want springs or brakes?

supra pads and rotors fit with supra calipers. They do not fit on stock SC300 brake calipers.

Default Check http://www.intellexual.net/faq.html

Check http://www.intellexual.net/faq.html
It has all the answers that you want.

BRAKING: Big brake upgrades will fit the SC300 and SC400 based on wheel size and offsets. For anything larger than stock, you will need at least a 17-inch wheel, but without proper offsets, not even 18-inch wheels can clear the most basic Supra TT rotor upgrade. Here are some specs for the most popular big brake upgrade kits...


The SC400 came with power automated telescoping/tilting steering wheel, and the third brake light was mounted inside the spoiler as opposed to on the rear dash behind the windshield in the SC300. The SC400 has larger disc brakes (11.7-inch front & 12.1-inch rear) compared to the SC300 (10.8-inch front & 11.4-inch rear). The SC300 had an optional but very rare velour (gray or tan) interior and optional but very rare hard top (no moonroof).

Please to SHOUT in the forums (your caps are on )

If you're going to upgrade your brakes look into getting the LS400 calipers/pads/rotors done.
