Now that Orbit has ceased to be a forum sponsor, who else is selling those metal things for holding the ceramic pucks in place? I need a full set of 20 for a caliper rebuild.

In case there's doubt, I'm referring to the silvery "flower" inside the ceramic pucks in the picture below. Photo courtesy of 997GT3North.

Thanks in advance!

Eddie at RPW may be able to help you.

Why not go to Orbit?.... or Eddie.

Does Orbit have them in stock?

TRAKCAR

No idea, I guess I needed them but they sell to good residence customers only..

Easy fix ...... more gas, less brake

What does that mean in English?

TRAKCAR

Means they wont have them in stock for you.

Never was a fan of Orbit, and they're certainly not worth an iota of my time now. Any bridges we may've had have all been burnt to a stump. I couldn't give a rat's a$$ if those guys race cups, saucers or friggin F1, or if they make GT3s levitate. Bad service and appalling ethics has zero place in my book and I'll be a vocal critic every time their name comes up in a thread I start.

There.

Will try Eddie (RPW) as suggested. Thanks all for the pointers.

You have to be nice to them CREX. But yes for shipping stuff Eddie is the place to be..

CRex

That was exactly the problem--I nice with them and they really tried to take advantage of that fact last year.

Thank you for the translation.

I'm not mad at Orbit, but they sure are "less than motivated". Anything I've tried to schedule in the past never worked out. I called Roger today about the parts. Basically he said they were getting ready to go to Daytona and didn't have time to deal with it. Appreciate his honesty.

Luckily Peter buys a new car every 8 months or so and puts the same mods in each time, so no fear of Orbit going out of business

I hope to jammin' enough in my business someday where I turn customers down
