Quick question re: brakes.

Hi Guys,
I have an opportunity to purchase some 300MM Rotors and calipers from a MK3 Supra, and am wondering whether they will fit on our MX83 Cressida...I assume they will need some kind of modification; I just need to get an idea of how much "modding" will be required...If it is very costly to do, I may not bother if, however, it can be done relatively easily, then it is probably worthwhile.
N.B. I have to decide today so prompt replies would be appreciated...

I'd imagine it's unlikely to be a direct bolt on mod. Offset of rotors is significantly different (53mm for Cressi vs. 68mm for Supra). Also, given the large increase in rotor diameter (256 to 300mm), I'd imagine it's unlikely the calipers mounting holes will be in the right spot for the upgrade. Of course, there may be a difference in the calipers that allows for such an increase in rotor offset and diameter.
I suggest you check before you buy (or not buy) if possible....even do a basic trial fitting if the seller allows. Sorry I can't give you a definite yay or nay.
