[DML] Re: Front Brake Calipers

["daveswingle2" <swingle_dmc@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

The Capri calipers were made by ATE and the DMC calipers were by Girling. They are very close (although your year seems wrong if memory serves) but I'm not sure of the internals i.e. there is no guarantee that pistons or seals would cross.

I've been told that the Delorean caliper is the same as the Capri unit.  I've seen a picture of the Delorean caliper and it looks the same.  I was wondering where you folks get your calipers.  I would certainly appreciate any sources that you can suggest.  Thanks for your help.
