Quick question here. I'd check myself but my car is stored and not really accessible atm. Are the Front and rear rotors the same size? |

I need to do my rears this year. Put a drilled set on the front a couple of years ago and I was just going to get the old fronts skimmed and use them on the back. |

Another question on the brakes. I want to re-do all 4 calipers but I can't find a piston / seal kit for it. From what I measured the rear piston is bigger than the suzuki swift so a kit for that wont work. I haven't looked at the front yet. You guys have any idea what I need to look for in this regard? The seals are cracked and torn and the pistons are showing signs of corrosion |

So I been looking for a caliper rebuild kit for a long time now, since the fall anyway when my rear left siezed up. No luck at all anywhere trying to find something. So Wednesday I brought the car into a shop that could do one off's. Cost me $160 Per caliper to get rebuilt with new seals and dust boots...
Today I find http://page.auctions.yahoo.co.jp/jp/auction/145308481
Just my luck >.> |

Now my rear calipers are seized, so tomorrow I'll be calling around to see if anyone can do a custom rebuild as well!
Has anyone here replaced their wheel bearings? If so - did you just use the OEM bearings? Or can we use something else? |

You should be worried - my new set of rears just arrived and the're labled as fronts for a Wagon R or Alto Works - right rotors though, the AZ-1 is definately a 'parts bin' car
