Any ideas? I get lots of news release that Raybestos is making them from epoxy or some lightweight material but no reference to our early brakes specifically.

Don't make me have these manufactured!!! :disappoin

In the past new or rebuilt calipers have been an easy find. I believe I have a couple of sets not sure. jlp

Just looking for pistons. Not the whole caliper. I realize rebuilt calipers are available, I want mine 'restored' to original. Big difference. But I do need pistons.

You can still order the individua parts through nissan as my understanding. I just ordered some of the seals separately. Check out there sites:

For part numbers:

Understand, but at $40 - $50 for the new or rebuilt you can part them out, cannibalize the pistons from the new ones, cheaper than you can "have them manufactured". jlp

On second thought if you want to keep the externals for some reason, "restored to original", my last post works. That being said I am not sure I fully understand the "restored to original" concept on the calipers. Unless you are the original owner and know differently it is as likely as not that your calipers are not the original ones. It has been common practice for years to in lieu of rebuilding exchanging for rebuilt calipers. JLP

http://www.rockauto.com/catalog/raframecatalog.php has them for $11.71 each
