I don't think I will be able to compete with 2 years!

Though I do still have a stainless manifold to go on that I bought about a year ago.

The problem with atr calipers is they are massively over priced IMO, 150-200! Second hand covered in crud lol.
You could get brand new ones for that lol

This is why I am most probably going to get ones from a factors.

They certainly hold their value - I put that down to the fact that they are a decent upgrade. I did consider other options, but particularly wanted the benefit of twin pistons. I got mine on here for £150+ delivery for calipers, carriers, discs and pads so was a better deal than they often go for.
