Any idea about the availability (& cost) of these bigger brakes (2nd hand)?Originally Posted by 3sgte
Alo about the interchangability with the standard twin floating calipers.
Hi Mos,
Glad to hear the stock brakes will run fine, just wondering what rotors, pads and lines you are/will be using all stock or what?
Also I stumbled across this little page, i'd be intrested to see how your car goes on the dyno. http://www.v8soarer.com/dyno/index.shtml
These guys have slighty modified intakes, aftermarket/custom headers, extractors, cats, exhausts and tuned ecus all of which you have.

is300.net (or whatever it's called now) have kits for sale to fit the Supra big brakes (4 pot calipers and 320ish mm rotors) to the front of the IS200/300.
Hi Mos, have you started the wireing yet, do you plan to use the 1UZ ECU ? i have started to wire my IS up to the 1UZ ECU, but by the looks of it im going to have to use the IS as a piggy back to make it work, as i dont have the cash right now for a NEW!! ECU. let me know how you get on mate or what you will be useing.
Yep SC400s (UZZ30/31 Soarers) had the 275mm rotors to fit inside the 15" wheels, those brakes were *very average* for such a large car, hence why everyone bolts on the 296mm TT Soarer rotors/calipers (the ones Mos is referring to) or the Supra 4-pots if they can get emOriginally Posted by 3sgte
As far as outputs go a healthy pre-'95 1UZ will be around the 150rwkw mark, its the factory ECU that really strangles these engines, although the restrictive exhaust/manifold doesnt help.... once you sort these two areas out you can start getting some nice results!
Any updates MOS? :-) :-) :-)
