Coverage and how to read this overview

Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

POST 1 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Does anyone know a source for these parts? If you are cleaning/reconditioning your calipers (2000 Boxster), do you/should you replace these inner piston seals? I am having trouble finding someone who carries these. Pelican doesn't have them, says they are not a separator Porsche part, Brembo?? (can't tell), Suncoast - no.

POST 2Original post

Now who did I buy mine from???? I can't recall it's been so long. There is a company out there on the web selling all the parts needed to rebuild brake calipers.

POST 3Original post

Centric parts makes them, you can get from any place that carries Centric, like RockAuto: 2000 Front: More Information for CENTRIC 14337009 2000 Back: More Information for CENTRIC 14337013 Looks like the fronts and backs might be the same for S and Base but I can't confirm... Racingbrake also makes caliper rebuild kits including high temp silicon dust boots for track: http://www.racingbrake.com/category-s/7185.htm

POST 4Original post
