oh they are? ill do some more searching but i havent found too much. thanks. i just got my h3 calipers in and they are quite beefy.
outmost to outmost width is 7"
length end to end is 10 1/2"
mounting hole to top of piston is 4"
mounting hole to mounting hole is 6 5/8"
and i know someone wanted piston diamater and that is, diameter outside to outside of each piston is 2 3/4"

To OP, nice effort.

If the pistons are 2.75, that would make them 70mm. Nice, it would add clamping force over the stock caliper, and even more than the Z06 twin piston.

BTW, having 4 opposing vs 2 pistons on one side, does not add clamping force if the pistons are the same size.

Very interested in your findings for fitment.

If you wanted tiny Brembos why not just use Subaru or Nissans versions?

Right and to my knowledge clamping force can be increased by total diameter or increasing hydraulic pressure. I need to measure my stockers because I thought for sure these pistons were larger. Lol if not that's my fault. And as for using other brembos I simply did not want too lol

What are they made out of, and what do they weigh?

That's the diameter for each of the 4 pistons? Is that accurate? That almost seems unbelievably large.
