Hey guys and Girls,
I have a AU1, and I need to get a hold of some rear brake calipers as mine need overhauling and I can't really afford (at the moment)the $400 the mech wants to fix mine up. I had a heap of work done on the rear latley and one of the jobs was new brakes and discs, and now it has devoleped a rattle in the rear left side, that I was told is the calpier or more to the point the rubber seals not doing their job I was there when the guy looked at it and he is right in that. So what I'm after is either a set of rear calipers for a AU1 (99) sedan or someone to let me know if one of them caliper kits (from PBR) will refurbish the whole thing and if it is very difficult to do, I am very mech minded (am a fitter by trade) cheers

The calliper kist are around $25 each from your local brake place. It takes about 30 mins to do each side, and the come with full instructions. you will need some fine grade sandpaper too. For $50 and a couple of hours effort, I'd be doing it yourself.
