I think caliper 1 is v6 and caliper 2 is 2.0 16v. I think caliper 1 is v6 and caliper 2 is 2.0 16v. Any help would be great, like to know what the number mean and what Pistons each one needs would be great! Thanks!

Caliper 1 will be a small piston V6/Turbo one, the 54mm piston size.
[edit] I say "small piston" as the other V6/Turbo caliper type has a 57mm piston size. So not to be confused with these!

Are the v6 brakes worth using? Looks like they been sat ages the Pistons were a pig to get out. Bores inside are fine but Pistons don't look so great! Been covered in spray paint etc

not seen those 54's before.
do they use a 256 x 24 disc ?
284x24mm disc.
I've got those calipers fitted on my saloon (with Fiat Coupe discs though) and they work well.
