Default Brake Calipers, can someone help me out?

I have a 93 si hatch, the rear calipers are sticking and need to be replaced. I've taken them apart before and cleaned the pistons and seals, this sovled the problem for a little while. They do not make a rebuild kit for the rear calipers that you can buy. If they did i would have done this long ago. I researched this a little a while back on what integra calipers would bolt up to my hubs and I thing they were 94-96 integra RS calipers. If you know anything about it please let me know.

PS: If you are selling rear disk conversion cheap let me know.

Have you checked out the price of rebuilt calipers? They should a lot cheaper than a disc swap (although more expensive than a rebuild kit).

Yes i've looked into everything. The cheapest i've found is $84 each with the core charge subtracted. I'm looking to find used calipers in good condition so i don't have to spend $200 or more.

I'm sure you could use RS rear brake calipers but you would probably need new caliper mounting brackets. Talk to Brian@Fastbrakes and he should be able to help you out.

You can buy new seals from http://www.hondaautomotiveparts.com I've done the ghetto rebuild thing on my F'ed up rear calipers a few times as well but yes, the Teg RS, GS or GSR will fit just fine. Hit up Import Auto Salvage.
