So how much does it cost to rebuild oem calipers and what exactly consists of a rebuild? Thanks.

 

Tear them apart, regrease everything, replace the seals and rubber rings. You can usually buy remanufactured ones pretty cheap at the big box parts stores for pretty cheap - core return.

What he said...a hell of a lot easier, too.

Just wondering cause most of the NSX calipers out there are rebuilt. Where and how much to get it done?

I realize there will be a price difference between your car and my car, but I picked up a set of reman calipers at autozone for $60. Can't beat that and it took me 5 minutes.

 

$60 is with core right?

 

no, without.

 

i picked up some calipers this weekend for $34 plus $20 core charge from autozone (87-89 integra calipers)

 

Rebuilds are doable, but time consuming. You'll need compressed air to get the piston out and then clean them up nicely. Then you get to seat a new seal, reseat the piston. And finally poke/prod/wiggle/jiggle the dust boot in. Not the easiest, not the hardest; rebuilds are definitly easier though.

 

Not to be a dick but how does your comment help this question?

hey hey hey your post [and now mine] don't help either!

 

Pep Boys is another option. I think I paid $34.95 each + core for my reman'd calipers.

advance auto should have them as well..

going this route is definitely easier than rebuilding yourself..

 

I just rebuild my ITR calipers, and took about 30 minutes total for both fronts....taking my time with it. Nothing hard, complicated, tricky about it at all.

Cost ~$40 for Honda rebuild kits for both front calipers.
