Have you got a link for the white decals mate
www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Brake-Caliper-decal-sticker-to-fit-Honda-Type-R-calipers-for-FN2-front-one-pair-/194018066150?_trksid=p2349624.m46890.l49286
that's the fronts mate. Think the same seller does the rears also.
@@FNLEW Thanks much appreciated
This is one of the most real honest youtube videos I have ever seen. Well done mate I loved this, I get sick of the slick polished stuff, you are honest and real.
You have no idea how much this made my evening. Thank you for the kind words. 🙏🏻
Really loved seeing this coming up on my feed and I still haven't even watched the video but I'm so into my fn2 at the moment that I'm obsessed with all videos relating to it 😂
SWEET. Been waiting for this guide 🤙🤙. High on my build list 😁
Thanks for the video! Just what we needed
Awesome how to this is bud. So informative 👌🏼 loves it 😁
Thanks so much mate 😁
YEEEE BOIIII, this is a top priority on my calipers!
Wanting to do the calipers on my accord, thankfully I've got a compressor, highly recommend investing in one, Aldi/Lidl sometimes have good deals on them, not much use for painting but can get some power tools for them! If not then i got mines from SGS Engineering, even use it to paint the decking and garden fences if you need to sell the expense to the misses 👍😂
Thanks for the tip mate, appreciate it ☺️
Great video, good effort!
Thank you mate!
Nice work! I did paint mine a while back by hand. So tedious! Yours look way better!
It's such a painstaking job 😨 thanks so much 😊
@@FNLEW Sure is! But the work is worth it!!
Thats a spicey thumbnail 👌 glad you got them all sorted mate 👍
Indeed 😉 cheers mate so am I 😁
Nice one buddy looking good remeber the rear piston need to be turned when your pushing them back in
Cheers mate. Cars been drive since mate so don't you worry 😉
@@FNLEW nice one good job 😁
💪 lots of graft but once done a great achievement 👏👍
Exactly mate worth it in the end 😁
You're doing a great job, but personally I would replace those pitted pistons with new items. The seal between piston and rubber seal will be compromised with that pitting/rusting and will only get worse with brake fluid being hygroscopic which will in turn make the piston surface rust more, then you could end up back where you started with a sticking or seized piston. Just thinking of your safety.
I get that completely mate. Unfortunately it was a time sensitive situation and I didn't have any new ones to hand. Fingers crossed I can afford bigger brakes before the problem crops up again.
they look good i did my type r calipers in silver painter the word Type in black and the R in red
Thanks mate. Nice one sounds great 👍🏻
Calipers look quality so far 👌
Thank you mate 😊
Hi where did u get caliper spray from and rest of the kit I.e primer ect thanks
Great video well done. Maybe could have showed putting in the new rubber boots would have been useful. And videos like this are never boring mate,. Cheers. 👍
Thank you matey. Don't worry, the next video completely covers it 👍🏻
Red callipers is at least 65 horsepower! Keep the good content coming!
Oh minimum mate! 😂 Will do 😉
Tricky job ain't it... i did a video on this job too, what a ball ache. well done bud.
Oh the worst job I've done by far mate. Thanks bud 👍🏻
callipers popping
Cheers bro 👍🏻
Best to replace the piston's and slider pins as often pitted,not expensive.
I agree mate and cost wasn't my issue. Unfortunately it was a time sensitive situation and I didn't have any new ones to hand. Fingers crossed I can afford bigger brakes before the problem crops up again.
Great vid mate need to meet up soon 😎👌🏼
Thank you mate. Yes for sure!
Oooo first comment. Loving your stuff matey keep it up!
Thank you buddy! 😁
never whack out a piston 😅 (foot pedal, air compressor, or winding tool) and if it's s refurb then absolutely defo would have changed those front pistons. If you did end up keeping them keep an eye out for seepage around the dust seals.
I've learned my lesson 😂 yeah unfortunately I didn't have new at the time but I'll definitely keep an eye on them.
Great video son shine 👌 tedious job like mine was 🙈 looking good so far mate 🙌🔥
Wait until you get your valve clearance done 👌🏻 I noticed a difference straight away as mine was done at 86k first time in its life.
Putting the rubber sleeve back on the piston and caliper was a bugger 🙈
Stealth brothers done his wrong with this bit and just fitted it to the caliper and shoved the piston back in without seating it in the piston as well.
Great job lad, look forward to part 2 😜👌🏻
Thank you mate. Was definitely a bugger of a job! Yeah make looking forward to getting it done 👍🏻 Cheers buddy 😊
Should have turned your wheel out pal :P
Yeah luckily I could still get to it 😂
I'd love to do this but looks like a bitch of a job 😂😂
Ye best replace them pistons me as they will only cause you TROUBLE down the line 👍🏻
Hopefully I can upgrade the breaks before any issues come back.
@@FNLEW awesome content keep up the hard work 👍🏻
