ebay or a breakers from a evo 3 and refurbish them if they need it

maybe ones from a evo 1 & 2 will fit as well but sure someone will be along soon to confirm that

you could go brand new but that I'm sure will be expensive

You can usually find the twin piston calipers from Mitsubishi FTO's cheaper, as they don't carry the Evo tax. Just make sure they are the twin piston ones as some used single piston.

GPX is a trim/spec level (just like XS, S, SE etc).

Mivec is the engine type that is used in the FTO's above base level (2.0 V6 24 valve).
