Default How much are medium black front brake calipers worth?

Currently on my '89 Turbo, so they're the 928 S4, 944 Turbo S front brake calipers.

Probably going to replace them with Big Blacks shortly...

I have always been under the impression that those are the big blacks. Only larger ones of the time period being the big reds that the 993 turbo used.

big black and big red are the same physical size with different pistons. S4 calipers are smaller.

My impression was the only difference between the big black and the big red calipers was the paint color. Everything else about them is the same, and they are larger than the 928S4/951S medium black calipers.

I think the big blacks and big reds are the same caliper the only difference is the color and the orientation of the bleed valves.
