supraturbochris Posted January 15, 2010 Author Share Posted January 15, 2010 bump guys, someone must have a set of calipers knocking around? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pistonbroke Posted January 15, 2010 Share Posted January 15, 2010 Maybe worth going to Keron for a used set off a late model breaker? Can't imagine they'd be expensive. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
deathmonkey Posted January 15, 2010 Share Posted January 15, 2010 Definitely worth checking with Keron, I received my UK front calipers today, unfortunately though I don't plan on fitting them for at least a few weeks, need to get other bits first and I have a distinct lack of funds after Xmas! Otherwise I'd sell you mine for a good price. Sorry mate. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
supraturbochris Posted January 16, 2010 Author Share Posted January 16, 2010 i did try with keron, but thanks anyways Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pistonbroke Posted January 16, 2010 Share Posted January 16, 2010 Jez will have a few too if you've had no joy. Failing that, what about some awesome Ksport 6 pots from whifbitz. Huge discs with stunning calipers, the full kit for less than a grand.! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
supraturbochris Posted January 16, 2010 Author Share Posted January 16, 2010 prob is dan, i have insurance coming up in 2 months, which is £700. I might bite the bullet, maybe even upgrade to uk spec calipers. Anyways what you doing up this early lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pistonbroke Posted January 16, 2010 Share Posted January 16, 2010 I have a 2 year old son, so I don't get to stay in bed anymore Be careful with the UK specs, they're a fat caliper. You'll want to make sure your wheels will fit over them. If you decide to go for UK specs, you are more than welcome to test fit one of your front wheels on my car as I have UK spec brakes.

deathmonkey Posted January 16, 2010 Share Posted January 16, 2010 Has anyone got comparison pics between the 2 calipers? Might get my UK's out the box and try and compare them with the Jspec calipers on the car at the moment if it helps. Saying that, I do have 19" alloys, so I shouldn't have a problem personally!

LeeT Posted January 18, 2010 Share Posted January 18, 2010 Ive got a set in the garage. You would have to put the bleed nipples from your existing calipers onto them though as i used them for something else. Pm me an offer Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
