-Welsh-Stealth- Posted August 15, 2012 Share Posted August 15, 2012 (edited) Just wondering what my UK spec TT front calipers are worth? All working fine, pistons working fine etc. could do with powder coating but all in working order. If I get rid I'd be giving me EBC dimpled& grooved discs with, no lip& well within spec. And what's left on my endless pads, again with plenty of meat left on them. And my ABS. Module, abs-ecu & brake lines if needed? Just wondering what it's worth& if anybody is interested? Thanks in advance Edited August 15, 2012 by -Welsh-Stealth- (see edit history) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dnk Posted August 16, 2012 Share Posted August 16, 2012 A lot would depend on the condition and age as the outer seals perish over time, the only way to tell is to remove the pads and clean around the outer seals with brake cleaner and have a close look. One minute their fine and the next the seals have split or get holes in and then they begin to seize up. New UK calipers are £200 each or there abouts Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Noz Posted August 16, 2012 Share Posted August 16, 2012 I paid 300 for a set of UK fronts. I think that's a fair price. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
-Welsh-Stealth- Posted August 16, 2012 Author Share Posted August 16, 2012 Yeah heard about that happening Steveo. So when I fitted braided lines& refurb kit last year did mine in silver(close to 199)manifold heat spray... But getting a little orange in places. So could do with something a little more substantial. What would you suggest? Never really been a fan of the max power brush on stuff... Don't trust myself to leave a good finish, my times better spent hitting engine components with a hammer And thanks Noz don't think I could ask that much. But will see how I feel after I lose this gAyBS. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
barneybrendan Posted August 17, 2012 Share Posted August 17, 2012 £300 is the going rate.they will fetch more than that on different sites. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dnk Posted August 17, 2012 Share Posted August 17, 2012 (edited) I powder coated a pair of uk calipers about a year ago and as far as i know there still fine. I dont think i'd pay £300 unless they had been fully refurbed, you can get brand new for £400 Edited August 17, 2012 by Dnk (see edit history) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
