If you bought new rotors wouldnt you want(and need for rear) nicer caliper? where to buy em? God bless

Zyrano

you don't need nicer calipers if you just brought stock size rotors even if they are powerslots. Just make sure the calipers work and don't leak, and make sure the system has fresh fluid properly bled. If you want to upgrade, get some SS hoses from racing beat or wherever... there really aren't "nicer" calipers unless you grade the whole system, ie-going bigger with t2 brakes or something.

I believe that they recommend that you use ceramic pads with them. As far as calipers go like my fellow rxer stated just make sure they are in proper working order. Flush the system completley and add dot 4 fluid, the upgraded hoses will give the pedal a crisper feel to it. rx7doctor

factory pads and calipers and dot 3 brake fluid works really well already! you will not notice any difference when braking.
the only time you notice "better" braking is when you flush/bleed the system.
are you rich? if so, replace it if it makes you feel better.

Why is anyone using DOT3 fluid anymore? DOT4 is the same composition with a higher boiling point. Less fade.

Whatever you do, DO NOT use DOT5... It's silicone based rather than glycol like the previous ones...

Pele, it's because we have not educated them yet. they are looking in their repair manual and no one has explained the difference to them. Also a tip to all members, change the fluid every 30k or 2 years no matter what. Condensation
automatically gets into the braking syste, ie; fluid this isnormal even with a closed ssytem. After a long period of time it comtaminates the system and reduces the
biling point temp and reduces the fluid pressure. Remember water cannot be compressed. Recommend getting speedy bleeders, whcih are a one way blleder valve that takes the place of your stock bleeders. you can then bleed and flush the system at anytime by yourself. rx7doctor Pele, lets keep educating our fellow members. Hey maybe we can have them pay us like so much per post or word, what do you think,lol?

rear disk is easy if you can find a disk rear end, but that didn't seem like what you were asking before.
