I need to send off the rear brembos on the scoob to get them matched red to the AP fronts. When I google "The Brake Caliper Company" I sure as hell don't see them?

I have a pair of rear Brembo calipers going off to these guys next week, hoping they do a perfect job.

I did have a scheduling clash with getting the car to the tuners so had put this on hold but due to deciding to do more work to the car first, I have deferred taking it there until 3/4th of Septrmber. This means that I plan on ripping the calipers off tomorrow morning and shipping them off but I am a little concerned that with the bank holiday guff that I may not get them back in time....

I am tearing the ECU out as well and sending it off tomorrow for upgrading to add temperature-based boost/rpm limiting too :smile_smoking: (not for the 6...)
