Brembo calipers repair kit

[Equalizer]

Hello.

I've got a small question. Do you know if calipers from Porsche 944 Turbo are the same as Brembos from Cupra R 1M? I'm thinking mostly of seals from it.

I have to buy a repair kit for my calipers, but I can't get any kit for SEAT. Maybe if the ones from Porshe fits, I'll buy it.

And as always: sorry for my poor English

I would not think the 944 callipers seals would be the same. These should be the correct ones http://brakeparts.co.uk/#!/shop/SEA... - Brake Calipers and Wheel cylinders/BCK4021

This is from the site, that you have linked: http://brakeparts.co.uk/#!/shop/POR... - Brake Calipers and Wheel cylinders/BCK4021

In both kits there are the same part numbers

That's interesting. They must be very similar calipers then. I never knew that.

So it will be a valuable information

I'll add more: according to the informations I've found on the internet, the same calipers have following cars: Focus RS 2.0 turbo and Porsche Boxter 2.5 (97-99).

All depends if the mounting points are the same as the ones on the lcr's. The Pistons may be the same. I knew the mk1 rs focus used the same pads but I thought there discs were thicker which should mean the calipers will be wider too.

Maybe the calipers aren't identical, but seals may fit. It's some facilitation after all.

Yeah looks like the seals are the same. Can you get the 944 seals ok in Poland?

 

[Equalizer]

Yes yes, no problem. I've bought two kits made by Autofren Seinsa.

Earlier I've bought two original Brembo kits from dealer, but they not included small o-ring seals, so I must return or sell them.

I hope you get your calipers sorted out ok.

Thanks. I'm doing a total renovation of all four calipers. Thanks God, that pistons from front calipers are made of titanium and they do not rust.

I will add, that rear, aluminium calipers are total failure of Seat
