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......

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.

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.
