Thanks!

Unfortunately they dont have what Im looking for.

On the flip side, I took the caliper to a Brake specialist and they were able to source all the parts for me.

Unfortuneatly I got stung with the Mitsu Genuine parts. The rebuild kit is $155, and the piston is $260 (WTF???????). At least Ill have it fixed before I go overseas..

Anyone know why the piston is so much more than what camskill charge for it (18 pounds)?

Sorry man I only saw this thread now. But for the record vipfto (tim) is also a kiwi.

Going into brake place end of the week - can ask for price and ship it over if it's good?
