spikesjz Posted March 10, 2006 Author Share Posted March 10, 2006 took the caliper off yesterday and it was a single piston but i was unsure if i ordered a caliper which type was fitted to the uk model. i was aware that the brakes were slightly different but was wondering if i could just replace both calipers with stock uk ones with no messing about Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
black cat Posted March 10, 2006 Share Posted March 10, 2006 mine is a 96 tt j spec and has the bigger uk brakes. make sure it hasnt had a conversion. the disks are different sizes as well, not just the calipers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
