So I bought an E30.

Ok, so let's say you got some RX-7 Aluminum Four Piston calipers? What do you do with them?



Well, first, you start here. Grody, dirty, stuck piston calipers.



Then you wash 'em.



Don't be a dumbass like me, wear gloves while you clean 'em.



Look! It's bubbling all evil-like. My hands peeled for 4 days straight. It was embarrassing. Wear gloves.



Think they're clean? Na. Sandblast the livin daylights out of 'em! (leave the pistons and seals in so sand doesn't get in the bore.



Then they should be clean like this:



Break 'em down, blow out the pistons, and gives those a little polish. There'll be crud on 'em.

Then bake them, 375 degrees (F) for about 20 minutes. (it's a porous metal, this helps with the next step)



POWDERCOAT! YAY!



Red is so pretty!



See how the powder was electro-statically attracted to the grounded caliper? Pretty sweet, no?



Finished Product, after second coat, and baked. (I had to get the bottom) Looks pretty good, way more durable than paint, doesn't chip or fade. So sweet.



So then grab a rebuild kit, and pop some new seals and boots in there.



So what am I gonna do with RX-7 Calipers? *maniacal laugh*
