My NS caliper is dead. Couldn't be more seized handbrake isn't working and it's started munching the discs. So need to source:
NS Caliper
Rear brake discs 5 stud
Rear brake pads
I could replace both calipers of I can get a pair cheap.
On a bit of a budget.

Brakesint and get a refurb
In my opinion rear calipers arnt worth getting second hand
Saying that I'm breaking a 5th gen so I have a pair if you really want to go second hand.

about 15 months ago i had the rear OS fixed. not sure what they did i think just take it apart clean it all back up and put it together again. Now the NS has gone. Hand break isnt doing a thing and i think im also without at least one back break. Thought about buying one of BIGREDD but wondered if someone had any lying about or knew anywhere better.

Mine was doing this after getting a refurb unit about 12 months ago.
It just needed taking off and having the pins re-greased and a general clean up. Could be worth a go before splashing the cash.
It's a simple job, and must be because I'd never done anything like it before and it went great

Ive got a full working rear nearside caliper.
No disc or pads though. Drop me a pm.
