Chris Wilson Posted August 27, 2015 Share Posted August 27, 2015 [h=2]Stainless caliper pistons, stainless pad pins for UK calipers, caliper seal kits.[/h] I now make and supply front and rear pistons for UK and Jap spec calipers. I also have stainless brake pad retaining pin kits for the UK calipers. i will sell as either full sets, or part sets as required. UK pistons: Fronts are £18 plus VAT per piston and rears are £21 plus VAT per piston. Jap type pistons: Fronts are £22 plus VAT per piston, rears are £24 plus VAT per piston (much more material used). I also have the special material square section seals that go between the caliper halves when you split them to replace the pistons. These are not even listed, let alone available from Toyota. They are £4.50 each and there are two per caliper. They must be changed... P&P for pistons is £7.80 to UK postcode addresses, sent insured and trackable. Brake pin kits in stainless for all four UK calipers are £36 plus VAT a set, plus £5.80 plus VAT insured P&P, or at YOUR RISK, £2.50 plus VAT by untrackable Royal Mail parcel. I am able to offer caliper piston seals and dust / water boots at a saving on Toyota prices. Let me know what you need please. I am happy to rebuild calipers for people, but don't want to get involved painting in other than black Kephos, or a customer supplied finish. I am unable to powder coat them, sorry. Price3 for refurb dependent on received condition, but circa £40 plus VAT per caliper plus parts. Payment by bank transfer or Paypal plus 4%. Prices are plus VAT. I do not take credit card payments, sorry. Orders by **E-MAIL** please. I have constantly changing stock levels at the moment. J-Spec pistons are now also available, as are seal kits. By using stainless you will stop further seizure by the chrome plating on stock pistons pitting and flaking and general rust issues on old standard Toyota pistons. If you don't know what you are doing take your calipers to a professional, the old pistons need to be nearly all the way out BEFORE you remove the calipers from the hydraulic system on the car!!!!! This means pumping them out evenly, with an assistant holding "eager" pistons back with a lever, with no pads in the caliper, one caliper at a time, then wedging the pistons that are almost out whilst you move to the next one. Home made wooden wedges, strips of metal, spanners etcetera work fine. Getting partially seized pistons out of calipers on the bench is a nightmare. Replies by E-MAIL please!! [email protected] or ring me on resource://skype_ff_extension-at-jetpack/skype_ff_extension/data/call_skype_logo.pngresource://skype_ff_extension-at-jetpack/skype_ff_extension/data/call_skype_logo.png07971-952084 Thanks. I can do stainless caliper pistons for ALL calipers, as well as re-sleeving worn out obsolete calipers, and obsolete master and slave cylinders. I can provide seal kits for many other makes of calipers, too. Don't forget my well known fast road pads, for all Supras and a now for a big range of other cars, too.

Supra Kong Posted August 27, 2015 Share Posted August 27, 2015 So how much for just the seal kit for UK brakes? At the minute i'd just be after the fronts... Pistons should be ok still... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chris Wilson Posted August 27, 2015 Author Share Posted August 27, 2015 42.00 plus VAT, piston seals, dust boots, and dust boot clips. If you split the calipers (which you should to do a proper job) you need 4 off inter half caliper square section seals at £4.50 plus VAT each. Total with insured P&P to a UK post code is £80.16 including VAT. Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Supra_4_Real Posted September 4, 2015 Share Posted September 4, 2015 What's your price inc P&P for a J-Spec rear caliper seal kit, both LHS and RHS and including the square seal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Supra_4_Real Posted September 4, 2015 Share Posted September 4, 2015 Also do you still sell OEM discs and CW pads? I'm looking for a set of these too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chris Wilson Posted September 7, 2015 Author Share Posted September 7, 2015 I don't do the discs as there are Toyota dealers offering as much discount to club members as to the trade, so i make no money on them But pads, yes, £120 plus VAT a full car set for J-Spec, or £140 plus VAT a full car set for UK ones. I do free insured P&P on full sets only, to UK post codes, and I have them in stock. Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chris Wilson Posted September 7, 2015 Author Share Posted September 7, 2015 What's your price inc P&P for a J-Spec rear caliper seal kit, both LHS and RHS and including the square seal. Rear kits a £32 plus VAT, only the UK calipers have the inter half seals, the JAP ones are one piece calipers and don't split. I will have a fully rebuilt, painted and refurbished J-Spec rear caliper later in the week, with new seals and a new stainless piston fitted, but right now I can't remember which side it is.

Supra_4_Real Posted September 8, 2015 Share Posted September 8, 2015 My discs were showing signs of blueing so I ordered the discs and caliper seal kit from TCB first thing Monday, I will email you in the near future for the J-Spec pad kit, currently gathering the funds.

Iky Posted September 9, 2015 Share Posted September 9, 2015 Chris, got the pistons fine. Thank you. They seem to be very well made. Can you also supply brake master cylinder rebuild kits? Will it make any difference in brake feel/stopping power or is it one of those that either works or doesnt? Sorry for the 20 questions! Im overhauling the brakes and want everything to be spot on.

Al Massey Posted September 9, 2015 Share Posted September 9, 2015 Hi Chris, Next week or so I'd be after a full refurb kit for UK rears, including pistons and pins. Could you let me know a price delivered please. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Im overhauling the brakes and want everything to be spot on. No worries. The master cylinder will either work or it won't, or it may leak. Renewing it, or renewing its seals will make zero difference to brake feel, or stopping power. Using a race fluid will make zero difference to brake feel or stopping power either. Glad you like the pistons, shame they can't be seen! Thanks Iky. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just to confirm that price is for both front calipers I try not to do PM,s, they are too hard to file and collate. The price is for a kit that does 2 calipers. If you want to use Paypal please send as a gift to [email protected] If you prefer not to send as a gift please add 4%. So either £52.56 as a "gift" or £54.66 sent as a normal Paypal goods payment.

Nodalmighty Posted September 10, 2015 Share Posted September 10, 2015 What can you do for VW Passat 2001 ATE Front calipers? They will need pistons and slide pins. I have RED seal kits ready. I'm hill climbing it so a decent pad will be required too. I was going to use carbotec XP but they tend to be very dusty, so your advice is appreciated.
