Hi Simon
Yes we can do them , its £75 each plus any parts that might be needed , we remove the pad plates to bead blast the whole calipers so it fixes this problem
We could make new pistons if you wanted them , but the standard pistons are anodised aluminium so if these are all ok I would stay with them , if you change the pistons to stainless it would make your calipers heavier.
Cheers Ian

You talked about the tests that you carried out on the pattern calipeers that youve used in the £300 kit earlier:
Have you seen the copy Brembo Big Reds (identical to Big Blacks, but inverted with the crossover pipe and nipples swapped over) that are sold by a number of vendors?
Theyre Chinese in origin and sold in Europe branded/dristributed by Dansk and theyre sold here by Design 911, for £400 for the pair delivered.
Im tempted by these but I doubt that anyone has tested them in the way that youve described, so any opinions or experience that you have would be appreciated.
Simon

I don't know of any other companies making copy rear 2 pot calipers , but you can pick them up fairly cheaply second hand , as the rear calipers are alloy they don't seem to be as bad for seizing as the front steel calipers
