There were 2 factory brake options on the Supra

 

Larger Brakes

Front - 4pot Calipers, 323x30mm Discs

Rear - 2pot Calipers, 324x16mm Discs

 

Smaller Brakes

Front - 2pot Calipers, 296x32mm Discs

Rear - 1pot Calipers, 307x16mm Discs

 

All UK spec Supras were factory fitted with the larger brakes.

 

J-spec Supras were factory fitted with either the larger brakes or the smaller brakes, depending on the model and year.

 

The larger brakes often get referred to as UK brakes, but as they were also factory fitted on many J-spec Supras (actually a lot more than were fitted to UK Supras) the term is confusing.

Are the brake pads the same size between the larger and smaller or are they different.

[Supra_Sean]

Small -33 cm2

Big - 35 cm2

 

All from this site : http://mkiv.supras.org.nz/specs.htm

 

Dont quote me tho as im still learning about the brakes myself

 

EDIT:

Infact i think im wrong as the big one is the uk brakes and not the bigger j-spec brakes. Think the ones your after are 33 cm2 (same as mine)

No the brake pads are completely different shape.
