Caliper Swaps - Stock Mounting

[GP4U2NV]

I have read that there is a caliper that is a direct bolt up to the stock mounting to replace the front calipers.

IIRC the piston is larger?

Anyone help?

 

[pontiacgp]

they come with bigger and smaller pistons..and good pads make a big difference no matter what calliper you use

So how or what do I order calipers for to get the "BETTER" caliper?

I like to use green stuff pads, and I am NOT going to run cross or sloted.

do you have a circle track retailer close?...or a speed shop...or order online..

I use the greeen stuff too, they are nice pads and they stop you...did you notice EBC must of changed something and now the reds are recommended for the weight of our cars

I heard that the greens had a fade problem with weight and heavy use. I wont be doing any "quick laps". Just want the stop power for the street "whoops".


Caliper:

I was told that there is a direct "factory" caliper that you can buy at the parts store for like $25-$50 each. Those are what I am wanting. I dont want a Willowwood or baer or whatever.
