Sounds pretty good because there are people selling front and rear calipers for $800 painted. but all i know is that i'm going to think about getting these because i was told that the TT's are sharper then the LS i don't know if it's true but if anything it wouldn't be a bad idea for the LS in the front (if they are the same) and TT for the rear since the LS don't sit without mods..

Got my calipers from napa last august for $83 a piece with core charge. No offense to those who work there, but they arent that sharp when it comes to calipers. I used my stock sc calipers as a core and they didnt even check. Got my rotors from autozone for $55 a piece and some pads from autozone for $35. Then ordered some ss goodrich lines for $100. It totaled out to around $445. Night and day difference with no problems at all. But good luck ordering them, i waited 2 weeks on the left caliper.

I don't think its(totally) an issue of the employees being incompetent. The description doesn't specify whether they're 1, 2, or 4 piston. And how many casual parts guys(non-dealer) know the difference visually between an SC300 and a 95+ LS400 calipers? Not to mention that they probably don't give a rat's a$$ @ $7 dollars an hour, as long as they have some calipers to send back to their supplier for a core.
I always wondered how long it took for the rebuilder to notice that the calipers in the box are not the ones that they should be originally
