    Default Need a second opinion - Do these look like...

    A 314mm kit caliper in the Ebay Link?

    I hope so, I just bought them... I needed a new seal kit for my drivers side and that would have been roughly the same price but with a hell of a lot more effort!

    Ebay Linky - I'm not sure that model of Saab had these brake though?

    Heres my 302 and 314's next to each other for comparison - Yes I know, I did clean them before fitting LOL

    The calipers themselves are used throughout the industry - I've seen them on Saabs, Volvos and probably others. The carriers are what change them for each car. Be careful though, as the VXR calipers look the same but have a few subtle differences to the 314 ones...

    I believe those 314 brakes are standard on Saab 9-3 2.0T Aero. Not sure about the lower tuned 2.0t and 1.8t. The 314's that a number of us on here got from that Saab dealer about 18 months ago were taken off Saab 2.0T's which were undergoing performance upgrades.

    But looking at the picture in the Ebay link, they look like the 314's, but I never knew the 2008 9-3 1.9 TID came with them. So just keeping my fingers crossed.
