Dodge715 Posted March 16, 2018 Share Posted March 16, 2018 Hey all, I would of posted this in "parts wanted" but for some reason permissions is blocked for me. I have a 93 NA MKIV Supra imported from Japan. I've been having issues with my callipers seizing. I've managed to change the 2 fronts but now the rear driver side has gone. I've taken it apart and put it back on but it seems nackered. I don't particularly want a refurbished one from breakers and no garages or even Toyota as a mean dealer can help me track down a new caliper. Do any of you know who I can contact or where I can find a new Rear Driver side Calliper? Thanks, Jake P.S I'm not a new member but lost my passwords like a right plum..

Dodge715 Posted March 16, 2018 Author Share Posted March 16, 2018 Ah I mb didn't realise. The only issue I've got with that is I can't gain access to the email address either so I'm sort of stuck for the time being until the provider gets back to me.

Scooter Posted March 16, 2018 Share Posted March 16, 2018 I've used Budweg from the attached link before. https://brakeparts.co.uk/shop/Toyota/Supra/93-01/Supra%20Jza80%20-%203.0%20NON%20Turbo%20Import/Rear%20-%20Brake%20Calipers%20and%20Wheel%20Cylinders Looks like they have a 'right' one in stock. I think a new one is very expensive......will try and check Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scooter Posted March 16, 2018 Share Posted March 16, 2018 Looks to be £284 http://www.garagewhifbitz.co.uk/toyota-1084.html but at least this means you get the new slider section too (the above refurbed piece is only the piston part I think) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dodge715 Posted March 16, 2018 Author Share Posted March 16, 2018 Thanks for your help guys! For a used calliper I was looking at £110 but the last used one I bought someone had actually bored a hole through it! Has anyone else had issues with their callipers? So far I've gone through 2 fronts and now the rears are/ have starting to go Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Frank Bullitt Posted March 16, 2018 Share Posted March 16, 2018 Did you buy them new or secondhand? If secondhand, did you rebuilt them or just fit them? If they were rebuilt did you use OEM parts? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scooter Posted March 16, 2018 Share Posted March 16, 2018 Has anyone else had issues with their callipers? So far I've gone through 2 fronts and now the rears are/ have starting to go The smaller j spec callipers are known for their tendency to seize. The rears are easy to refurb as the piston can be pushed out with a bolt through the hole where the brake line attaches. If they are reassembly all cleaned up and with new seals I don't see why they would seize back up in a short time. There is only the piston and the 2 sliding pins that move on the rear brakes so as long as these are free moving all should be well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scooter Posted March 16, 2018 Share Posted March 16, 2018 You can get new pistons from the brake places if the ones you remove are rusty, can even get stainless ones from Chris Wilson (a trader on here) if you won't to rule out reforming of rust. I think on the J spec rears I'd rather have a stainless piston and tidy the calliper than get a brand new one? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jim Posted March 20, 2018 Share Posted March 20, 2018 You can get a caliper refurb kit from Toyota for around £40 that should help Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
