    If you need to rebuild your calipers, we have all the components you need to rebuild your Ferrari calipers.

    Optional upgrade to the original brake caliper components:

    Caliper Rebuild Kits

    1. Replace OE's aluminum pistons to RB's stainless steel pistons for non-corrosion and better rigidity under heat stress, and only transmit 10% of the brake heat to brake fluid vs. aluminum pistons.

    2. We also offer high temperature (silicon base) dust boots, which can handle the temperature up to 450 deg F (vs. common EPDM boots @300F). This HT boots never got burnt out under track application unlike traditional boots, but just be careful not to let the boots contact the brake fluid or they will be attacked and ruptured.

    It's a pity you don't have them for older cars that are more likely to need their calipers rebuilt.

    We are gradually adding our coverage for more older Ferrari calipers, after the piston sizes on those calipers are identified.

    We made these SS pistons from 28mm to 44mm in diameter with a standard height of 32mm. All seals and dust boots are also interchangeable so it's conceivable that the rebuilding components for your calipers are available.

    So far we only found F430 Scud has different type of pistons/seals (w/o using external dust boots) than most Brembo calipers, but they are the same type as those we use in our calipers (w/built in dust seal).

    So the oil seal and dust seal are still interchangeable between Scud and RB calipers except the pistons (due to the height difference)

    Picture below: On left shows Brembo standard pistons with external dust boots, on right shows Scud caliper piston with internal dust seal.
