Default what year did they stop using the HP2 caliper?

I just looked at an 05 6spd and it had the standerd brakes, is this normal? I thought the 2.7t with 6spd had the HP2. thanks

My April '02 build 2002 model has the newer calipers, unfortunately.

Default Well that is a bummer. I never worked on an '02, so I was not sure.

Default Any press release or internal info as to why they switched calipers?

It's nothing important i'm just curious.
