I've seen these calipers (they are a twin piston slider) used on a front running IPRA race car used with Magna/Verada discs on 180B struts.... $50 is an absolute bargain...

They do not fit the Stanza strut.

2 piston yes
Flex alot yes
Sh!t yes
They suit a 28mm thick disc of 296mm. If someones using them on a 24mm x 276mm Magna disc I'd hate to be around when the pad gets low and flicks out of the caliper..........oh boy.
