Default 2-pot rear calipers

Hi all again

Looking at getting some of these for our project. Click HERE
Anyone done this conversion? Anyone bought from them?

Is there anyone/anywhere we can get them cheaper??

Many thanks

I've done it, with a little help, but didn't get the stuff from them.

Mine stood me at about £230, with the correct discs; which aren't included in the above link.

Why not source some rear Brembos, and buy the kit to fit them from Godspeed, who can also do you discs if you don't get any, and pads to suit?

They do fit under WRX 17" wheels, for an example.

Dunno if 15's clear them, but, my 16" Speedlines do.

The rear Subaru 2 pot calipers will fit under some 15" wheels , they do fit under speedline , raceline and compomotive motorsport 15" wheels as I have them on my rally car , and there is quite a bit of room left.

I dont have any calipers available , but you should be able to pick a pair up for about £100 , I can supply you grooved 290mm rear discs and kevlar pads , and a rear fitting kit for £170 plus £12.50 P&P

I sell the fitting kits on there own for £50

Cheers Ian
