Twinpot rear calipers

Postby FST4RD » Tue Jan 17, 2012 5:50 pm

Another question...
Me and a mate are looking at upgrading the rear calipers on our Starions. Mainly for looks though, cause the rear calipers look like crap. Got big 4 pots on the front.

Are there any good looking twinpot rear calipers that have the handbrake attached to them, rather then having a seperate inner hub handbrake?
Something similar to the ones on the back of the Altezza but handbrake capable?

What do the EVO range offer? Can't remember if they have the handbrake shoes inside the disc.

Funny you say that, I seen a set on a skyline, unless you were up close you wouldn't know. Looked quite good.

Doesn't have to be a Mitsi caliper, anything really will do, just means having to make up an adapter.
Oh and the caliper has to be able to take a vented rotor as well, none of this solid rotor business :lol:
