Supra Pilot Posted February 7, 2003 Share Posted February 7, 2003 Gordon you lucky bastard, those are the 'ultra high spec, low weight, mega expensive, super stopping brakes' you have there m8! Where in the hell did you get em from, if I was you m8, I'd go back to the 'seller' and give him another couple grand at least bud.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gordon F Posted February 7, 2003 Author Share Posted February 7, 2003 Ha Ha - good idea Dom - cheque is in the post Being as the rear are all aluminium, the only reason I can think of is that there could be a 'stretching' problem with an all aluminium 4 pot caliper. The steel half is the piece that shows through the wheels with the Supra sticker on. Is everyone's the same?? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
