Just to add , here is a sample of our Brembo caliper refurb , we had a guy the other week with a Pug 106 gti and wanted to fit Pug 406 coupe calipers on , we did them Kawazaki green , the pictures dont do them justice , they looked wicked !

We charge £65 a caliper to strip , paint strip , bead blast , prime and spray them any colour you want , we polish the pistons , and if the seals are undamaged we chemically clean them and rebuild the caliper , if the seals have any splits or damage , we renew them , and this add's £45 for the cost of the fronts , and £35 to the rears , the price for seals are per caliper.

Another problem that can happen with the calipers , is the bolts snapping or the threads being damaged , if this happens we can helicoil them at a cost of £30 per thread , we can repair both the mounting lug threads , and the bleed nipple threads

Hope this helps

Cheers Ian
Thanks Ian, will have a look at the calipers and see what I think. As another option what size discs are suitable for Innovit Tarmac18's
as I am also considering upgrading the brakes so new discs and 6/8 pot calipers. Cheers Steve

ok will see if i can find the part number and try subaru dealers if not i will be back in touch , wouldnt it be cheaper if i buy just 1 four pot kit as i only need the dust seals and you get 4 in one pack ?

or are the dust seals different size ?

any pics of 2 pots you might have done Ian? as i have been p.m'ing you about wanting new seal kit & pistons etc, might just hang on & send them in to you to be done & coloured. Oh & can you list prices? or is it same as the 4 pots? £65 p/caliper, plus seal kit plus pistons?

Hi Tim
I can recondition your front 2 pot calipers for £175 a pair , this is with new seals , bleed nipples and stainless steel pistons , I dont have any pictures of them , but they would be the same quality as the calipers in this thread

Hi,
Do you have any refurbished single piston rear calipers (in red) for a Classic V5 STI in stock?
If so how much inc postage.
Thanks

Hi Ian, if you're after some 4 pots I have a set not needed anymore, would you exchange for some rear pads, ferodo 2500? They're off an MY04 WRX?

I send quite a lot of parts to the states , but as we offer calipers on an exchange basis I think the shipping costs would make it very expensive , surely there would be someone closer to home that could offer you this service
If you check out on http://forums.nasioc.com/forums/forumdisplay.php?f=32 I'm sure someone can point you in the right direction

Hope this helps

Just a quick thanks to Ian for the stainless steel pistons set as I've finally got my 4 pots refurbed.
Great quality (imo),fantastic delivery service and the 4 pots now feel a lot more assured (The OE ones may have done the same job but at least Ian's won't rust ).

Perhaps a set of his front discs and pads now .........

Hi
I can strip , paint strip , bead blast , prime and spray them , chemically clean the seals ( as long as they have no damage ) polish the pistons and rebuild them for £65 per caliper , if they needed new seals , they are £50 per front caliper kit , and £35 per rear caliper kit.
