Does anyone know of a local place that rebuilds brake calipers? I tried Car Quest but they said they couldnt do it for my calipers because they’re rare (NX2000 fronts and rears) if i have to, i will go to Partsource and exchange them, but i just wanted to find out if there’s a cheaper solution first. any feedback is appreciated.

omg, ITBs!! i was thinking about doing F1 barrel style ITB’s down the road. custom machining the entire intake manifold myself. and then running some stock syle airboxes(2 maybe?) rite off the ITBs with a cowl induction inlet to take advantage of that high pressure zone at the bottom of the windshild. on a side note, looks like im going to be looking for a new B13 chassis. i was cleaning my interior today and being the anal perfectionist that i am, i started dissassembling the interior in order to get to every nook and cranny. so i took out the rear seats and was met by huge gaping rust holes… i could see right through to the tires. now i could fix this stuff, but there are soo many other body repairs that need doing that i am just fed up with this chassis. im getting a florida coupe or something. maybe an SE-R! 🙂 might keep my sedan for winter beater or something tho. ---
