    never change them if you wanna hand brake turn...never..not unless you got a hydraulic handbrake


    but I prefer XTR's calipers by miles in yellow....subtle, and they look neater.

    I hate red

    Only time calipers should be red, is if they've got BREMBO written down the side of em.

    I'd love a set, but my rims aren't big enough. Need 17" or maybe 16" if you're very, very lucky. What's really annoying is that Brembo Motorsport do a set which fit under 15" rims, but they won't sell them since they're off an 80's F1 car.

    Ah well.

    Or you could get some 6 pot AP racing calipers, bit more pricey but obviously 6 pots should be better than 4
