Seat sport ap caliper parts

[andy1bmx]

Hi,

I having a real struggle finding a company who sells most the parts for the caliper.

I have found a company called Auto Performance Products
This is the link to the parts for the caliper a-pp.com/Catalogue/Car-Specific/Seat/Seat-Sport-Calliper-Repair-Parts[/url]

I need the Fluid Brige Pipe CP6607-29CR3 but they don't have any in stock and I can't find any other company who does have them.

I have tried to contact them to ask when they'll be in stock but I've had no reply.

Does anyone know another company who sells these parts?

Thanks

I've previously used http://www.circuitsupplies.com/ for the pins, shims, bridge bolts and tubes, so they might be worth trying because they'll order directly from AP.... which is probably what the company you've already tried do too!

I am confused as to what "Fluid Bridge pipes" are. To me as a brake engineer this would be an external brake pipe that a garage could make up that we have at the bottom of the calipers. Any sensible garage that can fit new brake pipes could make one up if you took the calipers and old pipes to them. Researching more it looks like it might be the flexible hoses from caliper to car body that I would buy from Goodrich if replacing. These calipers are basically CP6600 (https://www.apracing.com/drawings/cp6600_1cd.pdf) with the extra bridge bolt/tube.. and that has a part CP6600-10 for a "fluid bridge pipe" which leads to this Russian site eventually which shows the flexible hoses! http://www.atomic-shop.ru/part/48510-CP6600-10/

They do have "Bridge tubes" which are the spacer tubes that the long cap screws fit on that you have to remove to replace the pads. I replaced the zinc plated steel ones with Stainless hydraulic pipe cut to size about 10 years ago (CP5200-124 Bridge Tube). Looking a new at AP's drawing these are optional/not required it seems. They will help with stiffness and maybe fatigue life ..otherwise curious why Seat forced AP to modify them (or was it a sales person who sold "custom" calipers to junior Seat engineer.. more likely given the poor Cupra engineering!)

Goodrich might not do hoses but Badger was/is doing them; http://www.seatcupra.net/forums/showthread.php?t=218150
