on the autozone website they have supra tt calipers for $100 a piece. are these of good quality? would anyone use these?

 

oh man someone should buy it and see if it's any good...

 

The TT ones that are like 42$ each at autozone are "remanufactured", and some of them are actually different castings (don't know how). I saw the same thing too, and I bought a pair of them to do a cheap TT front brake swap on my car. One of the calipers still had old paint on it and had the word "supra" on the caliper, and the other one didn't have anything on it and was a little different looking. I was just going to bring back my stock SC calipers as cores.... they usually never even look at them or know that they are different, but I took the supra TT calipers back and got my money back because I didn't want a hodge-podge brake setup.. Yes, they are that sketchy......

Order it(locally)...if it's not the one, return it. I don't think there is anything wrong with reman. stuff. I'd personally go with the ls400 brake...ops, I do have it on now ( I think I got it for 50 bux a piece).

 

Good luck getting them. They are NOT in stock. EVER. I have tried so many times for rears.

 

have you actually install it and test it? i think i might get these even though they're remanufactured .

 

I never installed it. I'm sure they would have been fine, but they looked different from each other and looked more like a cleaned up used part than a brand new one (left over old paint, signs of rust, etc). Plus, I've had bad luck in the past buying "reman" parts vs. new.

 

...or you can just get the LS400s for 160. I'd like to try to get a set for the rears though. Anyone try advance auto, or Strauss?

 

as far as rear calipers go ... do we just have the TT as an alternative?? or is there someone else out there using other calipers??

 

just a heads up, I bought some "TT supra" calipers off of rock auto for 100 bucks. I thought wow what a sweat deal. they even came with pads. Raybestos.

they came in the mail I open it up and guess what. they were supra calipers all right NA supra. 2 pot floating.

so all i got to say is. I doubt it.

 

i got my TT front calipers from NAPA auto. it came repainted and with the supra logo. it also came with hardware. it came out to $270~.


the autozone ones come unpainted and without hardware too.

 

itazura do u have any pics?... i realize supras are supras..... but just wanna see a finished product
