ANY BUYING/SELLING IN THIS FORUM WILL RESULT IN AN INSTANT BAN!

Read the rules: http://www.cb7tuner.com/vbb/showthread.php?t=43956

Myself, and the other mods have been very nice and lenient with the rules. We have been deleting threads, and giving out warnings. Some members didn't get the clue and re-posted over and over... Now ANY member buying or selling in this section will be banned... No IF's AND's or BUT's.

Beginner Forum Rules - EVERYBODY read! (old and new members alike!)

Beginners start here. Once you have 30 worthwhile posts (off topic doesn't count) you may post outside of the Beginner forums. Any "whoring" (posting simply to raise your post count) will return your count to 0, or result in a ban.

These are the rules. Read them. Live by them.

1) Absolutely NO flaming! "Flaming" is an outright attack on a member. ALL questions are encouraged to be asked here, no matter how basic. Members with over 30 posts will be subject to a ONE WEEK ban if caught flaming in this forum (and yes, moderators can read deleted posts). Members with under 30 posts will be subject to a ONE DAY ban.

2) Use appropriate language. Racial or sexual slurs will not be tolerated. A ban will be issued at the discretion of the cb7tuner.com staff.

3) No items may be sold in the Beginner forums. Any "for sale" threads will be deleted.

4) Temporarily banned members will be PERMANTLY banned if they are found posting on another account.

The rules can and will be added to. Any updates will be marked in the title.

The rules for the overall forum can be found here:

    brake calipers?

    ive seen the brake rotor over hub conversions from tasauto.com and it mentions akeboto and nissin calipers. Are these aftermaket calipers or the brand that came on our cars as stock?

                  It is my experience and personal opinion that Nissin calipers came stock on all coupes and sedans with ABS/rear disk brakes.

                        My coupe also had Akebonos.

                        I haven't been able to figure out how they determined it. Anyway, Akebono will have a triple A pattern on the caliper. Nissin will say Nissin. Basically, if it doesn't say Nissin, it's Akebono.

                          My coupe had akebono in the front. I'm trying 2 figure it out myself. My homeboy has a coupe also, but he has nissin calipers.

                              damn! I wish I knew about tas auto a few months ago. I wasted 300 for a shot to change the front rotors, when I could pay 50 more and convert them for easier changes in the future.
