I heat cycled after painting and seems to have done the trick. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe residual brake fluid still in the lines/calipers. Don't think I wanna pay 1400 for them either. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But unsure whether brembos last better than normal calipers? The brake place I went to rekon that's how the piston seals break (by sitting around I.e. wreckers). If you can get them cheap enough then could possibly pay to get rebuilt? I think I was charged $275 for the standard 2 pots front...but would be more cause 4 pot.Maybe pass and save the headache then Might pay to get a quote from Race Brakes Sydney just to compare? Think they will be like $1500 for calipers/mounting brackets, $250 for braided lines F&R, then $550+ for T3s? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The picture actually makes them look a lot worse than they actually are. They look great IRL. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
