Brembo BBK

My brother has his 04/05 E class Brembo BBK somewhere in the storage. I am wondering if it is possible to fit that on my 06 IS350. Help please?

bracket is your biggest problem, not to mention the brake balance once you fit them on

Just because they are Brembo means little. One needs to look into the braking force the calipers provide. You may go through all kinds of headaches, money, and time only to be discouraged because your stock brakes are better.
Plus the brake balance as Henry stated above is very crucial.
Too much braking force bias to the rear and say hello to the guardrail on your first hard brake in a corner.
I came close to adapting Cayenne Turbo Brembo brakes to my SC but changed after I noticed the rear Brembos were smaller than the Rotoras I have on there now.
It may work and work great, just wanted to point out some things as I have been through it a few times.
