Broken caliper screws...
So I ended up breaking one screw on each of one my AD22VF calipers. I am pretty mad considering that I have fresh pads and rotors to go on. Has any had this issue before? I tried punching the stud thats stuck in the torque member out but no luck. I guess I may try drilling it out next but I'm worried to damage the actual torque member. Also, does anyone know if I can use the caliper screw from another nissan brake setup? I tried searching but had no luck. Any help is appreciated. Thanks!

The ones from ad18 brakes are the same. I think it would be easier to just get new torque member.

They are called Slider pins if your talking about the ones that are long and go from the caliper to tq bracket. You can buy them at any Autozone. They are pretty cheap. I had one sieze and break in mine also. I had to replace the hole Tq bracket though. You may be able to bang it out with heat. But I gave up and just used another set that I had sitting around from a GTi-R after trying to get them out for a while.

Theres the name I was looking for! haha. I'm not so good on the technical terms. I'm gunna try some heat and see if it works otherwise I will have to find some new torque members.

Depends how deep the stud is in the bracket. I tried to drill one of those things out it ended up being a fricking disaster. May be easier to buy new ones if not possible to pick them up from a scrap yard.
