dattoman Member 67 Member For: 21y 6m 20d Location: Perth Western Australia Posted 12/02/04 10:30 AM Share Posted 12/02/04 10:30 AM I contacted PBR today on behalf of a customer.....possibly even someone here. I assume this as he quoted the exact part #'s.The front premium calipers are not available to me as aftermarket parts at this point in time. May be in about 6-9 mths. And then may only be available as a bolt on aftermarket PBR premium range of upgrade kits they have planned for the future.My trade price on the calipers was well over the $600 each mark from Ford. I consider this to be extortion.....even asked the guy if he was wearing a mask (highway robber)So guys as far as using premiums is concerned.....its genuine only for calipers for now.And when DBASteve gets me my brackets happening I'll have the AP 4 spot upgrade available too. Which is probably a better setup in my opinion anyway for a fast streeter. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Posted 13/02/04 12:18 AM Share Posted 13/02/04 12:18 AM I got a price of 344 each for the pbr calipars from coventrys but when I rang another parts supplier they told me that they wont be available for 6 months.that supplier could only supply ap 4 spot calipars in a kit for 3 grand but I would have to wait till september to get them because they are waiting for mounting brackets to be made.
