good to check your club rules first though, if enforced. VRG says you need to use the original equipment, and SVRA says <br>

<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom:12.0pt"><span lang="DE">The quality of the new calipers is somewhat suspect, but seem to work as needed.<br>
The first pair that I bought from BPNW had a yellow (anodized ?) finish with numbers in the castings. The second pair from BPNW 4 years later have a silver finish and no numbers in the casting which made me wonder about the quality. <br>
My first set has been on my car from 2013. 13 race weekends a total of 3,800 miles.<br>
Wilwood makes beautiful replacements now. They are anodized black. I far as I can tell, they will fit our Triumphs, but haven't made a complete comparison. Of course the price is higher, but more equivalent to the importance of good brakes.

I have seen these available for a while now, but fear they are made <br>
somewhere we don't want to know from materials I don't want to think <br>
about. I'm not brave enough to put one of these on a street car, let <br>
alone my race car.<br>
<br>
Has anybody tried these calipers yet? Any feedback???<br>
<br>
As long as good cores are available for 16P's, I'm rebuilding OEM <br>
calipers.<br>

BTW, the PB calipers are available new for around $100 each new.<br>
That's pretty inexpensive for such an important part. I purchased<br>
another set when I thought I might be having a problem, but ended up<br>
just changing pads. I'm glad to have a new pair standing by. Then I<br>
can rebuild at my leisure.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
