Hi,
i remember reading the v8 & tt rear caliper are exactly the same, just bigger rotors on the tt.... is this correct?

So does that mean to upgrade the rears, i'd just need rear tt rotors or am i missing something?

The bracket that holds the calliper is different to allow for the bigger rotors.

Not tried it, but thinking about it, I reckon they would be.

The joy is bending or removing the dust shield as it's too small for the bigger brakes. I bent mine back.

The calipers are the same, you really just need the longer TT mounting bracket (so yes it is interchangable)

But 99% of the time TT calipers are sold with the brackets still on them anyway
