Supercharged Lexus IS200 SE - Lexuspat - 16-06-2023

Well a little update I went to a local event to pass out some flyers for JAE was a good turn out of cars although half way through the day the weather turned so did all I could and left.

On the way home front brakes started to stick again so took the time today and yesterday and did a full return including slide pins.

One piston on each side didn't want to move and neither did 2 slide pins, but all stripped down cleaned and re greased with new seals and they feel 100% better

Also took a few pics of the car prior to this local show when she had a detail will upload them shortly

Pat - I wouldn't use the LS400 callipers, I had nothing but trouble and the Figs kit DOES NOT fit the OEM wheels over it. It caused all kinds of ball ache and we never could fix the squishy brakes issue afterwards.

I'd be more tempted to get a set of Z32 alloy brakes like Dave has done and get a bracket made. Will probably be cheaper too, as you can pick them up for 60-70 quid if you wait, I think they might even be brembo brakes.
