Our standard price to recondition them to this finish is £125 per caliper , so £500 for all 4 inc vat , these ones were probably the worst condition calipers we have ever had in , and needed a lot of machining , so were more expensive , and took longer to do.

At the moment , for a recondition , you're looking 3-4 days

Cheers Ian

Ah sorry I mixed you up with someone else , at that price 1 thread would have been repaired as well.
We had a set in recently that needed about 12 threads repairing , they were the expensive ones
Cheers Ian

Which begs the question, yet again: if Brembo are so good, why aren't they inserted from new???? They are bloody dear enough

Godspeed Brakes

I agree, they should be , it's weird that the EVO Brembo's don't have as many issues with threads as Imprezas , they are very similar calipers , but the EVO front calipers have a standard pitch thread on the fronts of 1.75mm , the Impreza have a 1.5mm pitch , the finer thread doesn't seem as strong when getting bolts out.
Both Evo and Impreza rears have a standard M10 1.5mm pitch , but we see more Impreza calipers that need rear threads doing .

Hi Ian, What do you charge for ap 6 pots?

They look good.


I have a question, and sorry for hijacking the thread for a moment:


A lot of people go down the AP, Ksport, D2, Cosworth... etc route when upgrading brakes, but is it possible to get the equivalent stopping power from a decent Brembo set up?


I had a set of 6 pot K sport on a blob a few years ago, and I have to say 10/10 on appearance, but the pads I chose were sh!te 5/10. Would have put it back to Brembo or tried a different pad if I had kept the car.
