Only heard good things about Willwood calipers. I would go for them myself.

For Racing Use Only

This usually means that there are no rubber dust covers fitted to the pistons

Hence they are more prone to seizure and contamination when used on the road

I asked them about that at Rally design and they said dont worry it wont be a problem ?

I said does the warranty still hold out then and yes was the answer, so we shall see :geek:

Oh no Brian... you didn`t buy them from Rally Design did you??

Almost everything from there needs to be "modified" to fit LOL.

They are cheap, but everything i`ve had. Apart from a few bits and bobs
needed a bit of work on it... :geek:

I got my Wilwood's from Rally Design - some time ago - and they do need a bit of ****ing about to fit, they don't just bolt on. As I remember I had to cut a small piece off the mounting lug off so they would go on square, and the spacer washers supplied had to be cut to D shaped to fit. That is for standard RS strut legs but I assume 2.8i bilstein ones are the same.

Treat them like bike calipers, squeeze the pistons out and smear in copperslip to keep them from seizing, no worries.
