21 Turbo calipers, i imagine the pistons are a bigger diameter than the GT items. No doubt they're not gonna fit on the brackets though :ashamed:

on eBay theres somebody selling the adaptors which will fit the 21 calipers as well. over £100 for them though :eek:

Wouldn't they be better if the piston diameter was bigger? Or does it come down to the master cylinder thingymajig, pedal pressure?
