difference between build date parts
Ok, i need a new rear caliper for my 01. build date on the car is 10/00. when looking at advance auto parts site, it says that its either two different calipers, ones for different build dates, before 10/00 or from 10/00. First question is which one do i need then? because technically mine was built IN 10/00 lol. my guess would be the from 10/00 and unfortunately its the more expensive one, of course. also, what is the real difference, the newer calipers are 20 bux more so why couldnt i just use the cheaper ones?

It will be attached to your VIN. I have the same type of car and "MINE" falls into the 00 category with a build date of 10/00 (but badged as an 01). But DAVEB in many of my parts purchases revealed that information to me.

Dont say there isnt if you dont know. I know for a FACT that the pad groove design to fit the piston is different between the two calipers and obviously pads from a true 00 will NOT fit 01.
