OK so i got some z32 brakes from craigslist this past weekend. Got everything rear calipers/fronts/pads/rotors/e brake ass, BESIDES! Pistons! Wow wtf right? My stupid ass didn't check the calipers before i opened them and noticed the guts of the brakes where missing.
I called Nissan they don't have any more and are no longer in manufacturer, i googled/ebay'd no one makes anything besides project mu but they cost 300+ just for pistons.

My question is are there any other calipers out there that are the same piston size/exact same where i could just grab some from another caliper.

Or should i just try and resell them?
Ive tried contacting the guy i got them from but hes not answering, i mean he could have just forgot to give me them but even in the pictures i don't remember seeing any pistons laying on the ground.

any info on making these things work would b great.
