Default Big Brake Kit question!!!

Would a IS350 Rotora 6 Piston Big Brake kit work on a 98 gs300? would it bolt on without any modification!!! seems the same. Because a stock IS350 caliper works on a SC300 with no modifications!!!

I'm pretty sure that it won't be a direct bolt on Zeb. The reason is that the front spindle on the SC300 is different than the 2GS. Why Rotora may I ask?? You do know that the pads will be limited since you can't use other manufacturer. If I have to do it all over again, I would go with Stoptech due to the pad selection and replacement cost.

Haha... You know what, I think a BBK for me is more for performance than looks man. If you look around hard enough on this forum, you'll find that people tend to sell off their rotora BBK due to pad selection and offering. I got an idea, why don't you go for the AP racing 6 piston brakes man.. It'll bring big points for show..

I have had Rotora on my other cars and i think they are pretty good. Right now i have brmbo on one of my cars all the way around...i don't think there is anything better then those brakes. I am just getting a good deal on it thats why i was wondering. Brakes i would like are Project Mu or Endless.
