    I used my Lancia Beta Calipers to get through the IVA test and then upgraded my rear brakes to electronic hand brake calipers and HiSpec Ultralite 4 pot calipers.

    Best regards, Paul

    Re: Hawk Rear Brakes

    Well... I had a great idea !

    Someone let me borrow the Rear Disc (Ø276mm x 10mm thick), Caliper, Caliper Mounting bracket from a 2005 Alfa 3.2 GT.

    Guess what.... it bolts directly onto the Hawk Rear Hub, the disc runs perfectly central, the clearance between the wheel and the Caliper is about 10mm, the caliper hand brake bracket is well inside the rim and is slightly closer to the handbrake so it all looks good !

    I have now purchased 2 new Discs cross drilled and grooved, 2 new calipers, new mounting pin kit, set of pads, anti pad rattle clips !, all for about £170... bargain

    If Craig at LB say's it was his suggestion I will stop buying the biscuits !...LOL.............................................ok.............................................................. Thanks Craig it was a good, cost effective idea...

    Hi all
    Well all of the new parts have arrived !
    The only item that was more difficult to source was the caliper Carrier (Lucas 7795/1)... fortunately Craig had a set of a "Breaker"... thanks Craig

    The Carriers have be thoroughly cleaned and are painted red and hanging above the Aga to dry !

    Will post some photo's when it's all together

    Cheers

    Phil

    I think I got a set from Germany, 164 for the front, 156 for the back. But yes, the carriers were the hardest parts of the brakes to source!
