    Hello all, Its about time I completed number 26 on the list of issues with my Toyota Supra. This ment cleaning and painting, and then fitting the Lexus LS400 V8 front 4 pot calipers and discs.
    This is a great upgrade of the standard Jspec calipers, But not better than the Uk spec breaks as they are much bigger and better performing. But these are great for the price. These cost me £140, ideally need some new pads, discs will clean up, but i will evaluate them during summer. Just trying to get the car ready for its remap early May.

    Hi mate
    Would these bolt directly on to a jzx100 or would I have to buy adapters?

    Great video! Researching the same upgrade at the moment and wondered how the brakes turned out. Did you feel any considerable changes from the j-specs?
    Also wondering how much these calipers poke in to the wheel in comparison to the j-spec calipers, since i'm kinda short of room there to the spokes.
    Love the car and the video! -Fellow supra owner from Norway.

    Superb video bro as always
    Great tip about the copper grease
    Wheels gloss black but keep all the bolts silver
    Y didn’t u clean up and paint the guards and centres of discs whilst u cleaned up the calipers
    Imo would have finished it off beautifully
    Keep posting the great vids

      Craig J thanks man. Black it needs to be.
      To be fair it will eventually have new discs and pads. Just on a budget at the moment and a short time scale for the remap so wanted to get the car chucked to gather as quick as so could. I'll paint the guards at some point lol

    What does she brake like now?? Ive just ordered mine off ebay...200 quid... will my na will stop now😂 one question ihavnt looked at the brakes yet but are tgey one unit or is there a carrier involved like most caliper brakes? Im just watching your video again

    • @bluudysgarage
      @bluudysgarage  6 років тому +1

      nevile bartos watch the video and you will see. The my are only a caliper. No carrier needed. But you need to file that edge away.
      And yes it will stop. Great improvement over the jspec

      Robert Cepeda hi Robert I'm not actually sure. A friend had the ls400 for drifting then decided to part it out. I don't know a year. If you want some make sure they sure they are the 4 pot calipers as they do some others which are smaller.

  • @heilong79
    @heilong79 5 років тому

    I done this last year, I needed to cut off the dust sheilds as bending them back did not feel effective enough, also the amount of bubbles that came out of mine was unreal, very much like yours. The brakes are not a million miles from the j-spc, maybe 30% better stopping power. Also hope you were using high temp paint on the calipers.

    You’ve got quite a bit of carbon on your car. Why not get you wheels dipped in carbon fibre? It will match your sun strip.

      Luke Stogden fair point. If they get dipped and then curbed it would be a pain to have dipped again. Least if it's black I can touch it in.
