My 2000 UK Spec GTS (R8 Clubsport) brake calipers need sorting out.

I have bust bleed valves on 2 (1 front 1 rear) and probably need new seals on at least those 2 for a good cleanout/reco.

Ive been trying to find the spec's out. Are they pbr or harrop 4 piston? What diameter pistons etc?
Just trying to source some reco kits through a mate in NZ so any information/details/part numbers etc appreciated.

Thanks

Nick let me know if they are the same.
Mine run 5cm on rear and 6cm on front outside D. No idea on inside piston diameter.
Both 4 piston.

Yeah I meant outside diameter, as in measured with the wheel on, not the actual piston inside the caliper. Which is what I think Harrop mean.
I guess its about 1cm less for the actual piston.
