Brake Caliper help
I just purchased new Cobra brake rotors for my car and I was wondering if I can use my existing brake calipers for them or do I need to by the "cobra brake calipers" I just wanted to know if they are both the same thing since they're both 2 piston. Thanks

so you bought 13 inch rotors. you want to know if they will work with GT calipers? no they wont. why do you think they call cobra brake kits a upgrade from GT brakes.

The s281s comes with 4 caliper pistons, not 2 piston. I dont know for sure if it will fit or not. the only way to see is to try..
