What are the specifications for the 2 types of calipers(ie are they differential bore or not?) and what is the fitment like on the high end calipers 3. What is the pad availablity like for these calipers? Are they a common size/shape pad the a variety of manufacturers make different compounds in? 4. Do the calipers have dust seals and what is the service life like for these? Thanks Then: 99 Silver Frost SVT #1919 237hp/219tq All Motor Now: 06 White STI Parts 4 sale

As far as fitment of the larger calipers you'll need to have at least 17" wheels as far as I know. We will be able to double check that soon enough. The rotors MIGHT be available in blanks, as I'm almost positive US BRAKE makes blanks as well. US Brake is the only place that I know of that have the pads, which you'll be able to get through us as well. They make two different compounds for the pads and I'll get all of the tech information on those as well. I'll get back to you sometime tonight or tomorrow with that information. --Adam

I might have to work on this as soon as I get my pieces for my SC. Very nice. pretty sure it is front only... I can't imagine front and rear 4-piston calipers and two piece rotors for about about the same price or less then the big 13" Baer Track front kit. Front and rear would be close to 2K. If it is a front and rear set, for my Baer front kit will be for sale for sure...I think it is wishfull thinking though.

The pads will be available through us and they come in 2 compounds. (http://www.usbrake.com) For the last question, could you be a little more specific about the dust seals? As far as service life, they're race teams run the calipers for entire race seasons without any problem, and I would imagine they're worked harder in that single season than any one of use could possible work a caliper. --Adam
