A bit of a Newbie sounding question
Generally do front brakes and calipers get hotter than the rears
I have had both rear calipers replaced and they don't seem to get too hot at all but both front do get much warmer
Cheers guys

Yeah they do, generally speaking the front brakes on a car do most of the work, hence the larger disc/pad/caliper combo on the front.
