Talking found z32 rear caliper kits (cheap)

I found out that centric parts makes a z32 rear rebuild kit, and other hardware kits for the z32 for cheap. I called them up and got the part numbers and they also gave me the name of a good company order from.

The part number is:
centric parts #143.42024 for the rear rebuild kit(2 per car)- $ 8 each
#117.42037 for the front caliper hardware(1 per car)-$ 20

I paid 2x $8 + shipping to rebuild my calipers. That is great compared to the $90 that the crooks, oh excuse me I mean dealership want.

You can order from Zeckhausen Racing. Calling them is best.(800)222-8893



For everyone who is looking to powder coat you need this. Even if you don't want to powder coat a rebuild before putting 12yr + old calipers on your car is a good idea.

if you powder coat, most powder coaters ask you to split them. when you split the calipers make sure you keep the o-rings because i believe the o-rings does not come with in any of the rebuild kits.

true this kit is no exception. There are no o ring included, but you can get them from Mcmaster carr. The size info can be found with a search.

Very good info. The only other source I've found is NAPA, they're $34 each. Dealer is NLA on caliper rebuild kits, so when stock is gone they're done.

At either price above, it's almost cheaper to buy reman calipers for $80 each.

FWIW amazon.com has the centric parts kit for $6.95, but I think I may have ordered the last two kits.

Anyone know if centric carries the (rear) z32 caliper hardware? Pad spring plate, wire clip, pins, shims... It's about $50 from nissan for all this little stuff, that IMO shouldn't cost more than $10....
