hi people. im wanting to paint my brake calipers red and have heard that using hammerite paint is better. what hammerite paint should i get? Just bog standard red hammerite paint or do they do a high temp one?. please help. thanks

Brembo's on my LCR are looking a bit worn and I've come across a full set of Evo 10 calipers (front and rear with pads) for a good price so I'm wondering if if anyone has ever tried fitting these or know if they will fit?

Hi Did anybody try to fit Mitsubishi EVO 2 pot calipers instead of OEM caliper? 256x22 Or any similar project was done by somebody?

What extras would i require fitting porsche 4 pots to a mk1 ? .. brackets etc ? and also brake disc size. cheers

what do you all think about doing this, waste of time or effective little tweak? thinking of painting mine white to go with the white car, was also considering green just to be a little bit crazy

Would the evo 8 rear brembo calipers fit on the leon with a bit of bracketry? http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/mitsubishi-evo-4-5-6-7-8-9-brembo-brake-calipers-rear_W0QQitemZ230390408941QQcmdZViewItemQQptZUK_CarsParts_Vehicles_CarParts_SM?hash=item35a456a6ed

Hi, I took my leon on a rapid run with some hard braking. The car stops great from speed however when they get hot (i mean very hot) i can hear the pad skim against the disc. Both sides do it, (it still stops fine and obviously when it gets to this stage i drive slowly). Once cool its totally...

Im pretty sure my front drivers side caliper is sticking. Done the wheel touching test and the drivers side seems to get hotter than the rest. I believe the 8v cupra has 256mm brakes. Going to go to the local scrap yard this weekend, but i doubt they will have many cupra's so what other VAG...

Does anywhere in the UK sell caliper seals for the rear calipers? Ive seen them on ECS Tuning but wonderd if there was anywhere over here that did them first, dbout the stealers do them as they will just try to fob me off with a new caliper.

Hi everyone, I'm new to the forum. I just bought a 2004 Leon Cupra 1.9 TDi (150) in gunmetal grey, which came with the 18" Cupra R alloy wheels. At the moment, I am totally loving the car but I want to make a few modifications. Firstly, I'd just like to say that i'm not overly car savvy...

I've got some porker calipers for my FR+ tdi. If I jack the car up, remove the front alloy, rest a caliper on top of the disc and then attempt to refit the alloy, will this give a good idea whether I'd need spacers? I've got the baby 17inch Cupra R alloys. Also can I jack the car up...

I have the ability to have brakets made up but i just want to know which calipers the mk3 is capable of running? I work in the brake industry for CRN Products so i can source discs and brake lines.. i just want to know if 'any' brembos would fit with a bracket? ie, evo, impreza etc. Or renault...

Looking to paint my calipers red....they've been painted before but its all faded and looks crap. All I need to know is where is the best place to get the paint? What kind of paint do I need? Also shall I paint them red or blue? Its a silver cupra with gloss black cupra wheels.

right... I've just bagged myself a set of porsche 996 gt3 front radial mounted calipers, got me all excited but then it clicked. they are mounted backwards :-o Can these be mounted on the FR+ tdi with correct carriers etc? thanks! :confused:

Just bought these calipers plust carriers and i need a bit of help. Where can i get reasonable discs and pads to match for an FR conversion.

Hi can i have some advice on the best way to refurb a set of brembo calipers on a LCR back to the standard finish i have also purchased another set of brembo stickers aswell :D All help will be appriciated :)

How do you know if your calipers are sticking? What are the signs? Should there the car pull to one side under braking? While driving last night I got a weird screech that kept disappearing when I braked.

Is it possible to paint the Brembo brake calipers? I want them bright and new looking again but not sure what to do? Cheers

can anyone tell me if ibiza mk3 1.8T front brake calipers will fit on to mk2 2.0 16v carriers please?
