    aftermarket z32 calipers??

    I can get some reman 1990 z32 calipers for a cheap price. They are NAPA Eclipse. Any suggestions on if this is a bad idea or not?

    I am thinking about buying them, adding some quality pads, rotors, new fluid and replacing the current braided lines with new braided lines.

    Is it worth it to just buy genuine 1990 calipers and have them rebuilt?

    Have you ever heard of someone using them? I can get them from NAPA for cheap locally, but I am just wondering if they compare to the OE calipers. If anyone has used them have they run into any fitment issues?

    If they are remans they should be rebuilt oem calipers, so they should be fine.
    Prius… because Pretentious wouldn't fit across the back of the car…

    Cheap, Fast, Reliable - pick any two

    I buy all my parts fro Rockauto, I trust them. A few times that I got the wrong parts, their service was excellent.
