Could try a Jap scrappy - but I doubt smashed Supra's last very long before they're stripped of parts and sold at a premium.

Could also hang around a supra forum and wait for someone to upgrade to a bbk?

Or have you considered Figs larger rotor kit rather than going for Supra calipers? Allows you to keep your existing calipers but run bigger brake pads for increased performance.

Don't know if you will encounter the same problem with the IS's but just so you know, UK supra brakes are huge and the wheels that fit my import supra will not go on the UK one over the brakes! One of the IS drivers will know if this is an issue you might want to check but I was gutted when my new wheels on my first supra wouldn't fit my new one Sad
