get the aluminium ones! and get some bigger/better rotors too! Thats what I'll be doing (oops I let it slip!). I'm hoping to get 14 inch rotors Front 13in back. But you can get some great rotors in 12 inch + the aluminium calipers combo's...youll stop on a dime! Big money but it'll put you in the 21st century! But the cheapest way is to stainless re-sleeve.But again you have to make sure that there is holes around the sleeves,otherwise its useless putting new sleeves in...cause theyll still leak!
mick:
Just had a quick read of the catalogue they have new replacement calipers for $469.95 US for a set of 4 or heavy duty delco for $559.95 US a set.
TIPPA:
Prob about 6 months ago Cam. Heard that they can be tricky to bleed but i didn't have any probs. Only thing was trapped air using gravity bleeding but nothing a bit of patience couldn't solve. Never had probs of air being sucked back thru the seals, especially with the rebuilt calipers with new seals. Still trying to justify the cost of a pressure bleeder to myself though... Would make life a bit easier (but for around $400 for a pressurising {hand pump or compressor} canister type)... :b4
