    I just bought 2 rear caliper from a MAZDA 5 for a bigger setup in the rear for my MS3.

    I try to rebuild them completly with everything new and a powdercoating for a fresh look. I tearing a part the caliper but right now I'm stuck to remove the ebrake actuator ... there is a cclip inside (don't see it) or I remove the spring for the ebrake but there is a stopper to remove the actuator from the caliper. Do I need to remove all this to clean everything they seem to be dirty inside just want to be sure I clean everything and change all the seal possible. This way I will have a free problem rear caliper for some years.

    I find some MX5 or FD RX-7 how to ... but doesn't look exactly like our rear caliper

    Thanks for your help

    The caliper is the same as the speed three for the conversion you only need the mounting bracket

    Does it has a cclip inside the rear caliper to retain the bolt inside on what the piston thread in ? how I suppose to remove this shaft from the caliper

    How I suppose to remove the ebrake lever ?
