try this and see which models have the same pads as the Evo3 ones

http://www.blackdiamondperformance.c...mitsubishi.htm

there maybe some slight differences in the brake carrier and the brake hose position, but if it's the same as the Evo3, most likely its the twin pots caliper, used this guide when i was looking for replacement pads, ended up using EBC Redstuff, good grip and much much less brake dust

Interesting about the FTO calipers. Ive got more chance of finding them than EV0 3 ones.

I bet they dont fit under 15 inch wheels though do they? That means Id have to buy new winter wheels

I resurrected this from the archive, but does anyone have info on this setup? I know I can use the EVO 1 2 3 mivec twin pots but would rather use the 3000 GTO 4 pots if it's viable?

Citroen c crosser, Peugeot 4007 front twin pot calipers are the same as evo 1,2,3 and Mitsubishi fto calipers.Probably even easier to get hold of.

So would the rebuild kit for these fit the evo 123 calipers? Are they exactly the same?
