Bit off topic dude, this thread's about sorting out sticky calipers! I don't know the answer to your question anyway - you can make most brakes fit if you can find / make adaptors for them. I think there are some off the shelf adaptors you can get for other Toyota brakes like the Supra / LS400 ones, or maybe they just fit? IIRC ST205 brakes are similar too.

toxo I'm not aware of anywhere other than Toyota/Lexus that sells them, so if you want brand new really you want to get them from someone with a trade discount (me) or someone who works for Toyota (ormi or jay). You could take known good ones from a breaker I guess? Or if yours are not in too bad shape you can take some wet & dry to them to clean up the corrosion.
The parts we used on Dan's caliper replaced both top and bottom sliders, both boots, and the small rubber bush on the end of lower slider and were from memory about £27. That's complete slider & boot replacement for one corner. All you need on top of that is some lithium grease to regrease the sliders with.
That was using MR2 part numbers, the same parts have various different numbers depending whether you order them for an MR2, AS200/RS200 or whether you go to Lexus and order them with IS200 part numbers. I imagine the prices will vary a little between Toyota and Lexus.
Cheers mate i will get them ordered tomorrow for a front corner dont suppose you have the part number for the kit pin, end bolt and boot cheers mike

1 x T47715-50030 (top slider)
1 x T47715-50010 (bottom slider)
1 x T47769-50010 (bush for bottom slider)
2 x T47775-50010 (boots for sliders)
The equivalent Altezza / IS200 part numbers are:
1 x 47715-30060 (top slider)
1 x 47715-22070 (bottom slider)
1 x 47769-50010 (bush for bottom slider)
2 x 47775-30070 (boots for sliders)
If you need the bolts that bolt into the sliders to hold the caliper to the sliders, they are 90105-08164.
These are the Toyota part numbers I used - like I've said before they are MR2 part numbers but they are the same parts with a different part number:
1 x T47715-50030 (top slider)
1 x T47715-50010 (bottom slider)
1 x T47769-50010 (bush for bottom slider)
2 x T47775-50010 (boots for sliders)

1 x 47715-22070 (bottom slider)

2 x 47775-30070 (boots for sliders)

toxo Well, surprise surprise, got the brakes off Dan's IS200 last night and lo and behold sticking slider. The lower slider boot had failed and as a result the slider was so corroded into the carrier it took about 20 minutes with a hammer and a punch to try and coax the thing out!! It was totally rusted and misshapen all the way down. The small rubber bush was melted and about 1/3rd of the way down the slider, which isn't right either (it's supposed to sit in a recess cut into the end of the slider).
Fortunately it turns out that the brakes are so similar that the sliders, bush and boots are all exactly the same as the MR2 parts that I had in stock, so we could replace the lot with new parts there and then. Cleaned all the corrosion out of the carrier with a round file and plenty of lithium grease thrown in for good measure. Should be good for a few more years!
Should be good for another few years? Try 11 months and 3000 miles!
Front passenger side is sticking badly. I can't even get the wheel off to look into it, as the locking wheelnut is knackered and I cannot remove it!

Erm, I hate to say it, but there's your problem, 11 months and only 3000 miles. When they sit for so long, moisture just sits on the sliders, even internally in the brake fluid, and cause everything to seize
