New rear brake option for SW20s from Wolfkatz

Hi all,
 
Just noticed the following in the vendor section of MR2OC.
http://www.mr2oc.com/showthread.php?t=447067
 
They have a new rear brake kit with a Wilwood caliper that works with the stock handbrake cables. The calipers also now have dust boots.
 
Anyway just thought some of you guys might be interested...

    Would love to see more detail of the calipers themselves.

    I thought that Wilwood always had the hand brake caliper.
     
    I did see them at Race Brakes , well in the bin as the owner wasnt going to authorize them to be put on a car in his shop. He said illegal. Apparently he wrote a lot for the Vic Roads compliance section dealing with brakes.
     
    Dust boots i believe that to be new for Wilwood however

    It depends if it does have a good handbrake mechanism rather than the "flex" types which flex one pad into the rotor (crap handbrake) and if they indeed have a dust boit for once.
