i asked too. and they said with regards with EK4 they dont have a rebuild kit. you have to purchase the 2 pistons separately...i got quoted 150$ for the 2 pistons :thumbdwn: how about you?

im not sure if the EJ8 and EK4 are compatible, however the EK9 i can use on my EK4. check the part number. make sure it is ABS compatible.

the guy said i could only buy a whole new BMC which would set me back $238 plus GST. i called up hannys and they said they have the seals but not the pistons =(

hey mike, i was told if the bore was broken a rebuilt wont fix the problem. how can i tell if the bore is too damaged for a fix?

I was about to ask this same question.

Mine was leaking in a major way. Was loosing complete reseviours full of fluid. I've taken it apart now and there are marks on the bore. Just not sure if these are scores deep enough to render it useless. Is there any definite way to tell?

Also. My car is an imported cb3 and has an h22a swap done before I bought it. So I'm not totally sure what BMC I have and what part to ask for. Says it's a Nissin part and has 15/16 on it. Does this give any clues? The local honda parts dept hates my car so I doubt they'll be very helpful.

thanks
