Hi There, I have just had a brake service at a Porsche specialist but when I went to collect it they said that the thread has gone on my rear caliper and to buy a new own is over a £1000 does any one know where I can get one at a reasonable price, a full kit to upgrade at reasonable price? Sorry the Car is 2008 997c2 Thank you in advance |

Various people do refurbed callipers at much less money than that. Big Red is one. Alternative is a Porsche Indy or use GSF or Euro car parts. Unfortunately its a still bleed nipple in an ali calliper, it seizes. what a surprise...... |

Hi this is not the nipple but the wind in? |

Hi Thank you for that can you recommend any one who has one? So far I am around £1k plus a wait time of 10 days |
