Frustration!
 
Do you ever get frustrated trying to get product information from a company.

I`m fed up with the poor rear brake on my 998s so thought I would go to Brembo`s web site to see what range of rear four pot calipers were available. Have you actuallt tried to get any info of their web site! its crap, cant find a list of calipers!.

So then I thought as I have AP lockheed stuff on the Jota I`ll their their web site...........ho ho ho!

Same storey, no list of calipers at all. I can only presume that thses company`s don`t want to sell their products.

Perhaps someone on here can steer me in the right direction for caliper info, dimensions etc!:mad::mad::mad:

Try here Brembo Brakes for the brembo stuff.

Also look at a bigger master cylinder as well as or instead of the caliper ;)

This american website is usually my last resort when trying to see unusual products - the only downside is seeing how cheap the US get their products. I don't know how much info they have on here but it's a start:

Thanks Nelly thats all I wanted to know, doesn`t look as though they do a direct replacement for the standard caliper with the same mounting centres.

I think the P32 is the stock caliper. the P34 is the ST one and is 2mm bigger on the pistons. It's also 84mm mounting.
The race stuff is 64mm though.

I've heard about an upgrade for the RSV's that uses a bigger caliper (P34??) along with a master cylinder.
I've yet to look into it as a kit for the Duke, but it should be a goer??

As well as Yoyodyne, I think Red Racing do a 4 pot caliper that fits the stock hanger.
Getting all exoctic with race stuff will need a new hanger.
