Value of 85 Carrera ft Calipers?

Looking at a brake upgrade-- is there a market for my used front Carrera Calipers. I know they are an up grade for SC's and 2.7's with Alum calipers.

From an one owner 130k So cal car.

What should I expect to get to help finance my upgrade?

If you clean them and rebuild them you should be able to get around $175 to $200. If you remove them and throw them in a box and ship, probably $100 bucks.

You sure about that?

I just bought a full set of rebuilt Carrera calipers for well under $400 from another vendor. Then there's the refund when the cores are sent in. Didn't realize that if you called, PP could get them, but the deed is done and the deal is pretty darn sweet.

best trick ever... call parts heaven and see what they sell them for. adjust accordingly.

i think $350 for the pair as is, was their last price. they guarantee, rebuildability.

There's a better trick out there, for half that price.
