No, no one offers a direct replacement upgrade caliper only.

Stock pad is FMSI D1028 pad shape, .74" thick. rotor is 296mm x 26mm 5x110pcd, 65mm bore

Wilwood doesnt offer a bolt on caliper.

Switch to the HHR 58mm calipers is the only bolton caliper only option that will yield higher wheel brake pressures without increased driver effort.

Hawk HP+ pads. rocking stopping

they dont, and have you ever priced out not kit based Brembo calipers?

Plan on $1300 minimum for JUST calipers, no brackets, no pads, no hoses, no hardware, just two calipers
