Hi Guys,

Just wondering if any one knows a better place to buy the caliper bolts from. It seems a bit stupid to have to pay £4.00 per bolt plus the £4 postage from mini spares.

Thanks in advance

They are special bolts for the calipers, you need the right ones. £4 a bolt seems fine to me for a special low volume item.

yeah, these are a special. With a UNF thread and a meteric shank. I'm not sure anyone else does them.

As above, they are a special. Originally only ever fitted to the ERA turbo cars.

 Is it A-Series only? I think it should be...
So when some joey comes on here about how his 16v turbo vauxhall is great compared to ours, he can be given the 'bird'...
