That is too much work. Depending on what you are doing with the car, a wrecking yard that specializes in integras could give you a decent deal, for example

And yes, this is a very common problem with rear calipers on integras.

Yep, I bought mine used from a GS-R, and those things were seized like a mofo.

Thanks for the feedbacks ppl!

So used or remanufactured? I dun wanna spend a fortune and I'm keeping the car stock. I was going to purchase a set of used ones but was afraid that those may eventually seize up as well because it sounds like a manufacturer's defect.
