Anybody know if these fit minispares alloy 4 pots? Can't find any sizes on there website. I can find some at Jon speed but these are cheaper

Thanks

I would guess theyre the same size as Metro 4 pots, in which case they would fit Minispares but Id email and ask about the Metro fitment

I seriously doubt it!

Speak to min- its

They also stock mintex 1144 pads

You do NOT want aluminium alloy pistons in your brakes.

1. The transfer heat into the brake fluid like motherfuckers.
2. They wear out

Fit stainless steel pistons.

Yes I do. The heat transfer is not a big issue to me and don't think they will wear down because of the mileage I do
Just doing it for unsprung weight
Rang them today and the guy said he doesn't think they fit minispares, but thinks they are the same as metro 4 pots??

I got a set of Metro stainless pistons when purchasing my minispares 4 pots. And fitted them whilst fitting the spacers to run vented disks.

car is just for drag racing, the fuel tank is about the same size as a bottle of coke!

Searching is all you need on TurboMinis

Well I've bought them today so we will see

Should've asked about replacement seals. I reckon they will all use the standard Metro items. Same seals, same pistons. Any weight saving will be negligible, if at all. You could use less steel as it's stronger.
