When I first test drove this NSX, I just didn't feel comfortable with the brake system.

It felt as if the pad was dragging against the disc and even when the parking brake cable was disconnected from the caliper, there were still some resistance felt.




I'm so glad the owner decided to have the brake system refreshed this time.



Probably, one of the worst condition that I have ever seen.

All four conrners had several serious issues.



Many slider pins were completely seized and couldn’t even move them without using the tool.

The grease got dried out so it came off like a solid material.




















And due to one out of two slider pins seized at each corner, several pads were not making good contact against the disc.















Due to the pad always under some level of pressure, the rear inner pads were really close to the limit when outer ones were still fine.
