the big kwaka 6 pots are meant to be good, i know a few lads who have fitted them to busa's because of the spongy problem on the suzuki.  i looked into it and it turns out they use different seals. I fitted a set of kwak seals to a busa once as the customer asked me and low and behold they blead up no problem and not spongy !!!!!!!!!!

I've heard that its because the profile of the nissin seals is not a straight edge, and being compatible in diameter you can indeed use them to improve the Tokico

That's interesting. The gold toxico's are different afaik. Alloy pistons and only one fluid connection between both caliper halves. Which is where the tricky bleeding comes from I believe.

If you can find a set of Nissin six pots.. those ought to be well nice. Or AP's (if anyone knows any about, please let me know!).
