new calipers already refurbed are £50 exchange from GSF mate.

U just need to keep the carrier that bolts to the hub.

I'm keeping my existing set while i refurb these, then swapping and refurbing the other pair.

Cant afford to take my car off the road for any time so exchanging is out of the equation for now :)

Really mate, refurb kits cost more than refurbed calipers from GSF. I was going to refurb mine myself but it's economically retarded and the results are hit and miss.

I know a guy with a Stockhatch 205 who did his twice and they were still not right and ended up getting properly refurbed units.

There's actually 2-3 kits from Memory. The basic guide pin set is about £30 then you;ve got the piston set.

Hmmm ok.

I shall approach it from another angle.

Cheers peeps.

You do know they'll allow you to take the new units away 'til you can bring the old ones back? They just charge a surcharge and then refund it when you bring them back.

Well im getting the old ones anyway. so instead, ill trade those at GSF.....swap em onto 123 then take the old 123 ones and swap those for more refurbs.
