Limeymk1 Posted August 12, 2013 Report Share Posted August 12, 2013 Would be interested to find out how good the Big Red caliper rebuild kits are. I've tried the Brakes International ones and they're ok, but only ok. The slider boots only lasted a year or two because the rubber is a bit on the thin side.

matt1280 Posted August 12, 2013 Report Share Posted August 12, 2013 I've had the seal kits from both places and they seemed exactly the same quality Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wickie Posted August 12, 2013 Author Report Share Posted August 12, 2013 http://lmgtfy.com/?q=big+red+brakes Very funny i thought Big Red was a person on the club as i would rather spend my money with a trader on here. Thank you Jan. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Got a setup for sale in need of a refurb if you are interested.. got GT4 twinpot rears to go with it as well! Bought them to do the conversion on mine, but got other priorities now.

Cheers Ben but i have the twin pots as the 6 i am breaking is superstrut plus i have just come across a set thats just been refurbished so i will prob use them and sell the 2 sets of callipers that i have. What pads go on them though? I have been told it's pads from MR2 not Celica pads? But thank you for offer mate, rears ar too much bother to swap to GT4 ones, had the wiki from Mondo who did his SS1 so i will just refurb my rears.
