Spunkmeyer Posted February 6, 2016 Share Posted February 6, 2016 (edited) Say for simplicity I'm looking at paying £600 just to properly remove, ship, paint and stencil my OEM callipers. (£400 for the job if posted but have to pay someone to remove and then refit - which is difficult to arrange as BrakeSpecialist wants 7-10day turnaround, this is getting annoyingly expensive just to arrange and no garage wants a dud car sat for 2weeks) So anyway - For that sort of cash, what big brake calipers are available to swap out the OEM ones? Keeping OEM discs . I can only find whole kits I'm happy to paint the OEM and I appreciate they are very good brakes. Just aesthetically i wish OEM were larger as I think calipers look better when they bear half moon shape. Any thoughts? (Sorry haven't searched too hard as there are many posts but buried deep into build threads) Looked at PartBox/Whiffers/DemonTs/Titan Edit... Found Wilwood I know this answer is stick to OEM Edited February 6, 2016 by Spunkmeyer (see edit history) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
j_jza80 Posted February 6, 2016 Share Posted February 6, 2016 You can't just use any caliper with any disc. There are no calipers that fit the stock discs, though that's not to say it isn't possible with some custom adapters. Sizing up brake calipers is complicated. If you're looking at £400+ for a refurbished, you'd be better buying brand new UK calipers and selling your old ones. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
