I don't have much luck finding calipers for our cars.
Only:
A1 cardone
Centric
World break resources (WBR)

If I can't find calipers like brembo, stoptech, project mu, wilwood, endless, (list goes on...), I might just go with either Centric or WBR.
Not looking for a BBK either.

Any inputs on the caliper choices?
I see members with non stock calipers n their 6gc... are they OEM just painted or one of the brands above?
I don't want to go the ST205, SS-III, MR2, Lexus route either.

Also, if one of the aforementioned named brands makes calipers for the GT, please tell me.


Thanks

Thanks for the input guys. Sorry for a late reply, didn't have internet for the weekend.

I saw the ss-III's two piston option but it seems like they are uber rare and this is something I just want to get done asap. Thanks for the input thou.
I will be buying the centric ones and just replace the whole thing. Easier for me and less time consuming.

Thank you all

best bet it to contact all jdm suppliers in the USA and some in canada if necessary. I"m sure you'll find one. patience is key with our 6gc. most just sell the engine/transmission combo and not the clip but they do have the brakes and suspension pieces from ss3
