Car is in for a pretrackday check with JZM and apparently my 'ceramic inserts on your front callipers have disintegrated the rubber boot that hold them in and protect the pistons have also been fried'

Thus I need some whole new front brake callipers, Does anyone have a set of these for sale (would need them for both wheels obviously).

Many thanks!

Can't you just get them rebuilt?

Hi, are we talking about the dust covers that go over the brake pistons ? If so they are available as a separate part... Have changed mine. Not sure about the zircon oxide inserts if they are availble which are the cylindrical inserts that go into the piston to stop brake heat transferring into the brake fluid. Not had to change any and I work on a few GT3 cars that are heavily tracked.

Hmm I must confess I am not too familiar with the workings of the front brakes but I will attempt to attach some photos. Apparently these ceramic inserts arent available anywhere at the moment?
