Does anyone know who's calipers EMPI use in their kits?
A friend is trying to source a slider pin and bolt for one. I'm sure they're not unique to EMPI, are they maybe from a VW or GM vehicle?

Try talking to Jon owner of Top Line Parts on Miraloma Ave. in Anaheim 714 630-8371 he's pretty knowledgeable on Empi calipers.

I have heard that they are used on a European Ford, Tanus was what I thought they said.

Thanks, that's a GM brand but there are so many types to choose from.
