Alex Posted January 4, 2003 Share Posted January 4, 2003 I don't want any opinions of quality so forget that. I need to know who makes pads which fit the j-spec calipers. Failing that can someone tell me the size of the pads are....though I think I have some spares somewhere so I'll have a look for them and measure them. I'll start the list with Porterfield EBC Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gordon F Posted January 4, 2003 Share Posted January 4, 2003 You can probably machine any brake pad you like to fit. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sharpie Posted January 5, 2003 Share Posted January 5, 2003 Originally posted by GavinL Supplier really Come on Gavin - OK so he is not a big PLC but, he does supply them. Alex only asked for who makes pads which fit the j-spec calipers he did not ask for only “official” manufacturers. So, IMO he falls into this category.

Alex Posted January 5, 2003 Author Share Posted January 5, 2003 I want the brand names.... Chris is welcome to keep that to himself. I wouldn't expect to find out what he supplies. EBC TRD Endless Hawk OEM Porterfield What about mintex or Ferrodo? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alex Posted January 5, 2003 Author Share Posted January 5, 2003 Found an old EBC pad and measured it. The whole thing is 145mm wide 63-65mm high 16mmdeep The pad itself is approx; 122mm 57mm 10mm Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think they both list a similarly shaped pad for the Lexus, but my research suggested the material was different to that used on the Supra, probably a softer compound.
