The COMPLETE guide to the IS300 brake upgrade to LS400 calipers!!

Follow the instagram! @irvinortegaofficial
After having my IS300 for a couple years I decided that the braking system didn't look or perform as well as I would have wanted. I set out on a mission to change this. Now normally this would involve opening the blast doors and letting the money just pour out from my wallet but I decided to find another way. I found a set of LS400 calipers that with a little modification fit my car and look wayyy better than stock! This video is going to help anyone that's looking to do the swap for themselves get a better feel for the parts available and how much it will cost to do it.

what is the recommended offset for aftermarket rims after the ls400 brake update? I'm looking to upgrade the brakes. Thanks in advance.

Dude I am subbed! I own and daily an is300. I just got done doing a supra clutch and flywheel swap because my clutch was toast. If you need any info hit me up. Have you run into an issues with your Air vent selection system yet? Mine is stuck on one settings. Feet and Face for example. Can't switch to defrost. I still need to look into how to fix this hopefully it is not to hard.

How’s the set up running ? Im thinking of doing the spacer like you did

[@blownaway4371]

So, in your previous vid that you rebuilt the calipers, you did the REARS also. Are those also from the LS400 or stock IS? IF they are LS400, are they the LS rotors or IS? (is there a difference in size between the two, calipers and rotors?)

[@codyargyle2019]

I have wheels 18x8.5 fronts with +35 offset... think they’ll fit without spacers? It seems like there’s tons of room for it

[@FiveCurmudgeon9]

I have a question: are these keeping the ABS intact ? also, I am very curious to see if the wheels I ordered will fit these as I dont have a whole lot of room to play with :P

[@danielnunez4818]

Can I put these ls400 bbk on my IS300 if I’m rocking the stock 17’s? I’m trying to get these brakes upgrade but I don’t know if they will fit with the stock rims ... would I need to upgrade to bigger rims as well?

[@shootingstarstv2309]

can i use stock rotors?

[@TheFlyingHernie]

I really wanna do this install. Not sure its this video or the install video, but you mentioned needing new rims. Is it the diameter of the rims or the offset that makes it hard to fit these calipers? I have 19x8.5 rims.

[@kingjayjay98]

Ok so if I buy my calipers from autozone I won't have to do any rebuilding. Correct?
