If youre unsure, just buy some reconditioned ones from the States. Ivan will know the URL..not much more expensive then doing it yourself.

if the calliper hasn't got any rust in the inside, you can fix it easily.
I'm doing mine atm. I got one good piston, and 1 bad. Bought a new one for 48 euro, and a refurbish kit (dunno the price atm). When i've got it installed, it's as good as new again!

I refurbished mine a couple of weeks ago. Never did it before but it was not really hard, you just have to take your time. The refurbishing kit for my FWD E8 was 55 euro's or so at Toyota.

New front calipers run about 70 euro's a piece.. reconditioning kits from toyota are around 30 euro's...I wouldnt do that job again knowing that professionally reconditioned ones cost so little.
They're sold on ebay.de or you can get them directly from reconditioning companies. FABRICA MI DIEM, PVNC! |
