So here are the photos. Slightly scaled or we're talking mbs instead of ~600k per pic.

Hope they are good enough, resized to 60% of the original dimensions.

Does anyone have further informations about the brakes from MP 4/2? Did they use the same brakes on MP 4/2, B and C and was that brake also used on MP 4/4?

It looks that way, but i can`t tell for sure if it was the same on MP 4/4, the calipers look the same, brake disc too, only the center part has some tiny differences. ;)

Thank you for information Torsten, did not knew that Mclaren produced the calipers on their own, starting to make sence that they used the same ones in the turbo period.
