Yes, S13 Brakes, Stock.... Sorry, I guess I should have provided more information. Awhile back I was backing the car into the garage and heard a pop and noticed the brakes were different. A real hard pedal, like no power brakes. I replaced the booster as that is what someone suggested. Well, that seemed to give me a power pedal now but the driver piston grabs and stays out. I just replaced the caliper today and it seemed to be fine but after a bit of driving again, I have noticed the brake still is hanging. So it is not a seized piston since this is a new (reman) caliper. Any other suggestions or thoughts?
