Wanted: SRT10 calipers

[KDR83]

Looking for used calipers from an SRT-10, if you have a full brake takeoff aka pads and rotors too I will consider buying everything but only if you also have calipers. I have 2 sources for rear calipers but need front calipers or willing to buy all 4 at the same time if available.

Thanks

arent the fronts calipers on a srt the same as the rears?

 

[KDR83]

They are the same size but the pistons are smaller

Google valaya racing. San Jose CA. My car is there now and I saw a shelf full of srt10 calipers. I'm sure they wouldn't mind parting with a set. It's a local vipers shop.

Very important...! I know a lot of guys buy replacements not knowing there is a difference. A front caliper (larger piston)
put on the rear, or a rear caliper put on the front, will affect the brake bias.

I have an extra set,.....but was planning to rebuild them for future use. -those stupid dust boots don't hold up to heat very well do they?

No they don't....

Titanium backing plates between the caliper piston and pad help. Removing the pad tension clip helps alleviate heat also.

Well if you change your mind, let me know.

I have a couple leads, will see how much people are asking for them, what is a fair price for all 4 calipers?

Where does one obtain titanium backing plates?

I've seen the backing plates........do they really work? ..........leaving out the spring,..hmmmm. I may try that.
-I paid a grand for a set of take-offs from a car with 3,500 street miles, loaded with almost new pads.

We have used calipers in stock right now, give my salesman Ryan a call if you are interested in getting some. I know they tend to sell very quick.
