got a qns. bout to do this myself.

ECU-MAN what did the rebuilt kit consist of exactly? is it a full kit or just pieces put together, not really a kit? did it come with new primary and 2ndary pistons? because i went to a honda dealership today and got quoted 150 bucks ?!

also when you drain out the brake fluid in step 1, thats the only place i should worry about right? once the resivour is empty, its should be safe to remove the cylinder?

promary, secondaty, and seals.

what is in the red circle is what comes in the kit, they all come together and not seperate.

the kit cost about $90

once you drain the fluid from the resivour, thats it, undo the pipes and remove it, with great care as fluid could still leak from it.

dont spill brake fluid on your paint work.

Just remember to factor in the brake fluid also. Nice and detailed DIY there John
