Best place to get rear brake calipers? (West coast)

Hey all,

I'm prepping for a track event next week. I noticed some uneven wear on my rear brake pads so I want to replace the caliper. I'd like to find an good price, but I also need it to get here by next Monday.

Any suggestions? Thanks!

I have a set of extra stock 93-95 calipers that I can lend you for the cost of shipping so long as you return it.

They've been sitting 6 months and I've only used them on the street but they seem fine.

I didn't comparison shop but just bought a rebuilt rear caliper last month from Ray @ Malloy....$85 plus $20 core. IIRC it was sitting at my front door in the midwest within 3 days. The only issue.......I haven't sent it back yet but think that shipping will cost almost as much as the core value.

Hey, I appreciate the offer! Let's see if Ray returns my call first.

You might also talk to Mazdatrix. They will be a little more expensive than Ray, but they may be able to get them too you quicker.

Any of your local auto parts store should be able to get you one. Advance or NAPA has them.
