RETed will become famous soon enough
The "big" FC brake calipers and FD brakes calipers are functionally the same.
The FD brake calipers are "squeeze cast" (or something like that) where they are slightly lighter.
Look up any aftermarket brake pad for the FD, and it will be the same exact part number for the FC "big" brake caliper.

Yes I am sure the calipers are interchangable (like mazdaspeed protege and v6 626 calipers are interchangable)

and yes the pads are the same (did I not say that already LOL)

rotors are different..

and if u are looking for pads and rotors hell I have them on my shelf!

SCREW EBAY!
