Hello,
I've noticed that my driver side front caliper is sticking.. =(

I remember hearing about rebuild kits for these calipers being available, and was wonderin if anyone out there has rebuilt one of these(SVT caliper), and what was involved.

It would probably be easier to buy an entirely new caliper. That way all you need to do is swap parts, put everything back together, bleed the brakes, and you are done. Calipers are not very expensive if you are putting a new stock part on it. It can get expensive if you want aftermarket calipers.

I'd check the caliper pins/rubbers first,they may be hanging up.
