How to easily rebuild mazda mx5 eunos mk1 mk2 mk2.5 rear brake calipers Ep.16 

You Sir are a bloody Godsend!! I was rebuilding my caliper by use of the Flyin Miata tutorial and was wrestling with getting the piston seal to get seated in the groove. Trashed two seals, sworn like a trooper for over an hour.. and then I found this. "Don't do it any other way because it won't work", you said. Damn straight it won't. Watched your video and I had the piston seal on in TWO MINUTES!! I cannot thank you enough!!!

My MX-5 is going to a new home on Monday - I don't have the room to restore it myself. This video was very helpful, as I had to deal with a seized caliper. It was informative, and the format/camera angles helped a lot, along with the narration.

Brilliant just what i was looking for

followed this today .. had a good idea about most of it but 1000% made it alot easier. legend thankyou mate. definitely do more !! top man

Thanks. Helped me a lot. The same calipers as Ford Laser (re-badged Mazda) in AU. I used a Febest kit. I found the kit's new piston dust boots pretty flimsy & ended up cleaning the original ones & using them. Viewers, make sure you clean the handbrake shaft well around the dust boot seal area to ensure a good seal. On mine I found that on one of the calipers water had got in & caused a bit of rust inside which then led to the O ring on the geared/threaded shaft wearing excessively & allowing fluid to leak from the piston side back past the O ring.

Nice video mate, really useful, bookmarked as I'm sure we're going to need to do it at some point!

friend tell me if that mazda caliper is the same as the volswagen mk1, mk2 the spare parts such as the rubber and piston kit are the same

been a great help, thx so much!!

Great video mate. You still got the MX5?

agreed. just what i need to know. understanding that little worm gear and how it all connects up. ps the voice over stuff is good.
