Can't get the ceramic discs unless you get a full rebuild kit from Motorsport, its a brembo kit including pistons and I think was $1,500 or so when I did it?

Alternatively you could do racing brake rebuild kit. I went OEM and haven't had any issues. If you just need one ceramic disc here or there let me know and I might have some left over.

FVD is another option

Dust seals and inner seals are super cheap Centric kits.

You can buy the PMNA parts that hold the ceramic puck to the piston. I installed them on all my pucks. They cannot fall out now.

Just curious if you use 2 O rings per cylinder? Or just one end?
