Well after searching around all morning, The soonest I could acquire a replacement kit was Monday.
I gave a call to Patrick(G3tR3DDY2GR3DDY) and he said he had the right rear caliper. So I drove the 2 hours to his house to pick it up.
Got everything installed, went for a short test drive, checked over everything, went for a longer test drive to embed the pads.
As of right now, the brake pedal has a softer initial pressure, but once you get passed that, it bite's hard

Ok, thats correct it is smaller ID at the spokes.
So no go for this ones.
I tested some 4 pot brembo this weekend I had lying around, they are original from a Alfa Romeo 166 V6 3,2L.
Fitted almost perfect, only would need a adaptor to fit but will it be worth the trouble? they where ~1kg lighter.
will be around ~330whp when the car is finished and im afraid the perfectly good (for ~200whp) stock brakes wont be up for the task. really would like to stay with my RPF1 17".
Guess its up for testing when my car is ready.
