I have the best C4 calipers made - the GrandSport units.

They have been in place since 2001 - 80k miles or so.

I would like to reseal them... anyone make the kit?

Thanks!

I honestly didn't know anyone made the kit.

I will check into that... Cobra brakes, duh, Baer might even offer something.

Thanks!

Stainless steel brakes will have them too.

You can upgrade the pistons while your at it.

If you go on a road course, they'll help with heat.
