If i was to go ahead and send them somewhere to get rebuild, re-painted, new decals and basically make them new again, anyone know of a place who will do a top notch job?

Does he do them? Sweet easy done

I work on that he does everything or has contacts. He did say he was going to make his brembos brand new so send him a pm to checxk

Can someone do one on how to rebuild brembo calipers? Just had a go at the rear, popped the pistons out but ripped both rubber dust seals and cant for the life of me work out how to get the suckers out

You do it with compressed air down the hole where the brake line comes in, but put something in the caliper or the piston will shoot out.

Thanks Macca but i already got the pistons out, i was wondering how to get the dust boots out. I tried pulling them with my fingers, pliers, knife, screwdriver but couldn't for the life of me get the suckers out. Then after harassing google, youtube, evo oz, ford, commodore forums and just about everything else under the sun for about half an hour i got my answer. There is a little hole next to each dust boot right where it sits on the caliper. You just get a jewellers screwdriver and use that hole to insert the screwdriver into, to lever the dust boot out.

Easy as pie, once you know what you're doing.

Thanks Joey.

With those brembos, will the stock brakelines fit? or do i have to use the ones that came off the evo? or better again, are there stainless ones available?

That's a pretty lazy question, if you had of searched I'm sure you could have found the answer, I'm sure the answer is in this thread:

Stainless upgrade for the win by the way!

EDIT: Here is another thread:
