You have one of the nicest/cleanest white celica's on this board. The only thing I didn't like about your car was the yellow calipers, and you fixed that. Did you have to take off your calipers to paint them? Are they the stock calipers? And finally, what brand paint did you use on them?

Thanks,

i know your trying to do the right thing for your motor, but this is one of those times where you should just trust the guys who have had their swaps for a while and have done a ton of research into this.

thanks a lot for the compliments. you dont have to remove the calipers to paint them. when i painted the calipers yellow i didnt take them off but i did remove them this time. i just wanted to make sure that they weren't rotted and rusted out. i had to rebuild the rear calipers so im glad i checked. i used dupli-color caliper paint that you can buy at any automotive store. you can also use high-temp engine paint.
