I know it's hard to see from the pic's but if you look at the jaw opening, 2 pads and a vented disc to go in there. They would be fully rewound wouldn't they???

Is it a sport? Just wondering how many options there are.

Now i didn't look at the part numbers on the calipers but the one's on the car have 43 embossed on them (the same as the fronts) the set i just bought from the link have 38 embossed, is this the pot diameter?

If it were that would answer a question i asked a while ago when i was playing around with the fronts, as i had 2 Lucas calipers with 43 on them but were for 2 different size discs i.e. 314mm from my 4.2 sport and 323mm (from an S)
