Group, Don't let any De Lorean parts/cores go back to the core recyclers, I'll buy or trade for them. Dan B., I understand. The De Lorean cross reference you mentioned has been around for years. If you switched over to the Jag rear calipers then sell or trade me the old rear De lorean. I'll pay or trade more than core charge they charged so we can keep them in ther De Lorean family.I'll also pay freight.

With these Jaguar calipers installed I notice no decrease in stopping power, and have been working/stopping fine for a long time now. I believe it would have more to do with the area of your brake pads that contact the rotor that will determine your stopping power. The fluid: as long as you have pressure in your system-the piston is going to push the pads against the rotor. People will buy their parts from where they please-I know first hand you've [John Hervey] got great parts and prices, it's nothing against you or any other vendors- I just wanted to let people know that I experimented with these parts and have had them on for a long time with no noticed problems or differences. And for the people who have trouble affording parts-there is a cheaper alternative that will work just as well. -----Dani B. #5003 --- In dmcnews@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx, "John Hervey" <john@xxxx> wrote: > > Dan, > Just want to remind people that the rear caliper are not the same as the > Jaguar, the piston bore is smaller with less fluid to stop the car.
