hey, i’m going to be doing my brakes; front and rear on 1990 Nissan 240sx. i was wondering if anyone would know the exact tool size for the brake caliper pin bolt, also is it a Torx or Hex… I’ve looked through the service manual, but found nothing… the reason why i want to know is that im short for cash right now and would rather buy the tool i need instead of buying a set… Thanx any help is greatly appreciated! 😃 Chaz ---

what pin bolt are you talking about? I just upgraded my front/rear pads and rotors…calipers in the next little while… To separate and take off the stock calipers the two bolts holding it together are 14mm…Is this what your talking about? ---

oh…right on so i dont need to buy any new tools… thanks, i just figured that the bolts holding the caliper on were either Torx or Hex, i didn’t bother looking at the actual brake caliper, because i wanted to get the tools before i started, but since its a 14mm, thats great! A mod can delete this, sorry for the trouble… :? And thanx again Shift\_Krunk Chaz ---
