Hey all,
I got vented JDM front brakes on my 86 , and they are in need of a rebuild. Is all thats involved is just replacing the piston seal in the caliper, and where could I source it from?
any help would be appreciated
cheers

I haven't rebuilt these exact calipers before, but for my brakes, the rebuild kit came with piston seal, rubber piston boot and the wire ring to hold the boot on. I jsut ripped them apart, replaced the bits that cam e with the kit and reassembled. Be careful not to scratch the pistons as they come out though.
As for where to get them... not sure. I rang the usual suspects, Burson's, Repco and a bunch of Mazda dealers (they're Mazda brakes).
