I'm after some rear calipers for some R&D. Rougher the better. Don't need slides, just the casting. Obviously looking for cheap rather than usable. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

:yeahthat: I'm trying to over bore the calipers to balance 4-pots. I can now bore them bit getting the seal groove right is tricky. It needs a certain depth / width to give the right pressure on the piston and I need to practice! Hence wanting old calipers. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Ah, like those US guys do/did for the Viper calipers. (same Brembo design)

You're going for 38 or 40mm?

40mn was a boring tool and a reamer, don't want to buy 38mm versions as well! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Let me have a look in my garage. For some reason I think I've still got an old pair of rears you could have.

Anyone else? I know you stashed them away to rebuild them 'one day'. Be honest with yourself, it won't happen, send them my way instead! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I've got one that I replaced with the group buy one. You're welcome to it - piston was seized. Oh and it's painted (red). Pm me your address if you want it. Cheers
