Brembo seal kits.

[matchtheclown]

Hey guys!

I've been in south america for 2 months. It's a hard life.

Anyhow, googling today I discovered that subaru brembo's are the same pot size as ours (EVO) so they share the same seals. They are loads cheaper through subi though.

So can someone kind the front and rear subi kits from a local supplier?
Our fronts are 46mm/40mm and the rears are 40mm... (Please confirm).

I'm pretty sure we should be able to get all the seals we need to rebuild for under $100.

I'm going to paint mine because they are so faded and I figure that might as well include a seal replacement. I'm kindof hoping this will help with the squeal too... although my squealing has settled a fair bit.

Well I did a search for brembo seal kits and this thread popped up so Ill put this information here for anyone else who wants to know.

These are the sizes of everything for you guys:

STi
Front disc: 326x30mm
Rear disc: 316x20mm
Front caliper: 4-piston 40/46mm pistons
Rear caliper: 2-piston 36mm pistons

Evo
Front disc: 320x32mm
Rear disc: 300x22mm
Front caliper: 4-piston 40/46mm pistons
Rear caliper: 2-piston 40mm pistons

350Z/G35C
Front disc: 324x30mm
Rear disc: 322x22mm
Front caliper: 4-piston 38/44mm pistons
Rear caliper: 2-piston 40mm pistons

Ill be getting the Nissan rear rebuild kit which covers both sides for around $70 to my door and I'm still looking into the Subaru seal kit but it covers both sides and chances are it will be a lot cheaper than buying two Mitsubishi kits.

Subaru front rebuild kit part number: 26297FE010
Nissan rear rebuild kit part number: 44120-12U25

I guess there is room for a bit of +/- for the diameter of the rotors. When I get the emails back confirming prices I'll put up links to where I bought my gear.

Ok for those that are interested, I got my front seals from here (Just search for the part number listed above) and I got my rear seals from a Nissan/Infinity seller on eBay however I wouldn't recommend them as they have poor communication and it took two months to get them. It cost me around $70 to get them from the seller but I think you can get the kit from a dealer for around $50 (I found this out after I had already bought them on eBay).

So, all up it cost me $160 for all the seals I'll need to do all the calipers. I think it costs around $99 per front caliper and $70 per rear caliper if you get the seals from Mitsubishi.
