If you want to convert to the LS400 (4 pistons) later, you're going to obviously need the caliper and the 12.4" rotors that comes with it. You'll either need to shave off some of the tie rod bolt or get some sort of Roll Center Adapter to clear the calipers.
Second thing is the clearance from the wheels to the brake. If you're on stock wheels, you'll need 15mm spacers. If you have aftermarket wheels, then you may or may not spacers depending on the disk.
Third of all, you'll need to either bend the dust shield, or trim some parts off to accomodate the larger rotors.
Other than these two issues, it's pretty much a direct swap.
