haha, i work at napa :p

20 for me, but they catch on to multiple buys of something pretty quick.

i think the fronts are like $59 a piece. We could probably knock a little off though.

wow.. its only $59 a piece? cheeeap.. how come i never knew ofthis..People always underestimate Napa...i'm not big into their retail side: oil is too expensive, detailing selection is limited and expensive, etc. but for parts, machine work (Did my Z32 headwork for $700), and especially hydraulic hoses [dirt cheap, all custom made high psi]...A powersteering line that was nearly $70 at the dealer cost me $7.00 to have made at Napa. Picked up a clutchmaster cylinder for the Z32 from them one time and it was a rebuilt OEM nissan...anyother place would have been a cheap reproduction.

my aluminum Z32 calipers have always creaked a little when sitting in place and pushing the pedal really hard but i've never had an issue with them otherwise.

hahaha, I just realized how I spelled it. I am spelling everything wrong, *Brake Calipers*. lol...oh my goodness, I crack my self up. I never took english class. Napa, well that sounds like a great deal. I will go check them out.

lol do you really think napa has them in stock.
if they dont, they can be ordered and will take a max of like 3 days...

and as far as the other comment.

yes, walk-in retail prices are ridiculous.

but napa deals mostly in wholesale (EX: goodyear, express oil, firestone... EVERYWHERE)

not trying to pump up napa or anything, but rather correcting some misconceptions and agreeing with facts

I LOVE it because I get everything at cost plus 10%... which is usually over 50% off the reg price
