Hi all,simple question did the calipers from the SV5000 or Group A come out in red?

Simple answer, no. All HSV calipers previous to the VT were unpainted.

Thanks for that i have some for my VQ off a VP SS and they are red but they dont look like they were just sprayed over and they have been red for a while by the look of them.Bloddy need different discs for the rear as the HSV rear calipers need ventilated discs not the solid type.
