Default another rear brake thread? please help

my rear driver keeps eating thru pads every 3-4 months,
I have done everythng all the threads have told me from reading

1) check and reckeck the e-brake cable
2) remove and sand the piston
3) got a new caliper!
4) bleed all lines and install fresh fluid

the pads get to the point where they are cracking, breaking small chunks off on the outer side and the inner side is wearing all the way down to metal to metal

thi usually gets noticed after a long trip (300-350miles)

do you think i have a bad caliper??? again?

im gonna take a shot at this... brakes are really a simple system, and i doubt you even needed a caliper in the first place..

It almost seesm like man your brakes are not proportioned right to that side of the vehicle.

I just got my integra, but all cars should have proportioning valve, that sends most of the fluid to the front, and some to the rear. your fronts do most of the stopping of the vehicle.

If your proportioning valve was malfunctioning, it could possibly be cauiseing that side to overwork..thus wearing pads as well..

Just a thought
