rear calipers - Matt - 02-04-2014

imon the hunt for calipers. my budget is incredably tight and finding something in my price range is a struggle.

been looking on ebay etc and they say that the calipers are good for different peugeots, so my question is, what calipers use the same as a 306? like 106/205/307? anything i can get my hands on, idea is to go to scrappy and look for something less sought after


RE: rear calipers - Connor - 02-04-2014

I remember reading, 106 ones are the same fitment, but a smaller piston size


RE: rear calipers - Matt - 02-04-2014

what does that mean? difference in breaking?

damn ebay lists calipers for every damn car


RE: rear calipers - Piggy - 02-04-2014

arent all the 306 rear callipers the same though, often "gti" comes with a heavy price tag, but "hdi estate" not so much!?


RE: rear calipers - Matt - 02-04-2014

yeah 306 ones are the same, but some scrappies, and ebay over price the 306 ones. things like poor spec 406s gone for little so wondering if they are the same.

i have £20 spare for these and its the only thing stopping me from putting a working beam on


RE: rear calipers - Toms306 - 02-04-2014

Cant you just replace the nipples on yours? Much cheaper than buying another set tbh.

Also yeah 306 ones are the same, try getting some off a 1.8 Meridian lol....bet they'll be cheaper than GTi/XS/XSi. lol


RE: rear calipers - Matt - 02-04-2014

I don't have any calipers, that's the problem.

My drum beam has collapsed, I have a disc beam, with discs and I have pads. Need calipers so I can put it on lol. I don't mind replacing the nipples if calipers are free Tongue

megane coupe rear calipers are the same iirc

Oh my bad. Thought you had a set of calipers with broken nipples for some reason!

I'll have a set soon with broken nipples both sides, wont be soon enough for you unfortunately though.


RE: rear calipers - joe1joe - 02-04-2014

There are two pistons sizes I believe but fitment are the same but would be Ideal to have both callipers the same size. Most are the smaller piston size tho

RE: rear calipers - swampy - 06-04-2014

As said most of the Psa range use the same caliper

106,205,309,306 xsara zx Saxo 206

Most are the same caliper though so use a larger piston
