dangerous brain Posted December 7, 2011 Share Posted December 7, 2011 http://www.Brakeparts.co.uk are selling UK spec budweg branded calipers that have the same markings on them as the OEM supplied items as new from the factory for £480 (that is both front and back BTW) plus minimal delivery charges (surcharges apply so check how much they'll give you back for your old calipers). The pads and discs are not much cheaper than OEM ones which aren't huge money at toyota really. I still can't believe how much some people charge for un-warranted, unknown age second hand calipers and ropy old discs lol. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dangerous brain Posted December 10, 2011 Author Share Posted December 10, 2011 I really don't know or understand why people will pay a few quid less for significantly old, unknown condition, often unserviceable second hand brake parts when fully certified, as brand new parts are available for a few quid more! Horses for courses I guess. I've had 2 sets of 4 pot fronts, and a set of rears from them over the years, and even with not reimbursing the exchange option I'm yet to find alternatives that can compete on price.

merckx Posted December 11, 2011 Share Posted December 11, 2011 You may get stainless pistons aswell. I bought a couple of pistons for my UK front caliper a couple of years ago, they were Budweg and I was pleased to find that they were stainless.
