Arrow SC300 front brakes fit on SC400?

I'm trying to sell my stock brakes, can my SC300 brakes/rotors fit on an SC400?

Look up the part numbers in autozone. com and see if they are the same.
I would bet they are.

The SC400 front calipers and rotors AND rear calipers and rotors are both respectively larger than on the early SC300's.

1992-1997 SC300 front calipers and rotors are smaller than on all 1992-2000 SC400's. 92-97 SC300 factory front calipers and rotors actually size smaller than the rear calipers and rotors on the same SC300 chassis. It was a very strange choice on the part of Toyota.

Only 1998-2000 SC300's and 1992-2000 SC400's and 1993-1998 Supra MKIV Non-Turbos all share the same front and rear calipers and rotors.

OP, yes they will fit but it is a downgrade for SC400's unless your parts are from a 1998-2000 SC300.

This forum needs more stickies. Finding out standard info is a crap shoot.
