Toyota Starlet turbo | rear calipers rebuild pt. 1

In todays video i begin the job of rebuilding my starlet rear calipers, a job that i have put off for far too long. As usual it didn't go as smoothly as planned, the pistons were seized and even with 8 bar air pressure they wouldn't budge. But nothing 12 cans of WD40 and and some persistence couldn't overcome. Once the pistons were out it was very simple to disassemble the rest of the caliper.
On a side quest today i also fitted spark plugs, thermostat and rotor arm to the 4efte engine.
This is part 1, part 2 will come later this wee where we will see freshly rebuilt and freshly painted calipers.
Heres a link to a more in detail video of a caliper tear down

Thanks man, i set the bolts out as soon as i got the rear axel, probably about 8 months ago now, i didnt think it would take this long to get around to it haha. No problem, looking forward to some Laurel content
