They're the same calipers - so it comes down to, are you doing this for some perceived performance benefit, or because your original calipers are shot and you came across some fd ones cheap?

Another guess is that he's doing it since they look better.

I like the look of the FD calipers over the FC but only if you need the replace the calipers.

My one caliper is leaking and i've come across a set of cheap FD calipers

Id' rather just replace both and rebleed than just rebuild the one
