This is what got me into AWD turbo cars… fixing bent rally cars. Bent rally cars led to AWD Eclipses which led to EVOs and the rest is history.
But bent rally cars still follow me around.

Our Shop EVO 8 is running again after a time out for bad behavior. Fresh 2.3 stroker motor ready to make some noise. Monday we have some housekeeping under the hood. Then some break in miles on the dyno and a retune during the week next week.
So Juan Laguna had just picked up his 06 MR after laying down 580 whp on his new BBKB turbo on E-85 and was having a little too much fun when…
Got the motor in the hole!
Thank You Jason from PHX!! Expect a full feature soon!!
Our friends @ Prestige Marketing and Rally Innovations sponsored a mini meet at Puente Hills Mitsubishi this weekend. We took the shop RalliArt to represent and hang our for the afternoon. It looked like rain in the morning but it cleared up to a nice day. We donated a couple RRE Gift Certificates to their raffle. Rossy’s friend Michelle Yee was there to hand out the prizes. After a long week of EVOs and customers and shop talk it was fun to get out and do something different. Got to go outside and hang out with EVOs and customers and talk shop!
We are no longer offering this service. Centric changed to a different powdercoating company a while ago and the current finish is not the same as shown in these pics below. Sorry for the older teaser pics.
Current powdercoating process looks more like this:
Centric can still do the rebuild on a Brembo EVO caliper and get the rebuild part mechanically perfect. But the powdercoating is more what you can expect for a race car. The caliper will be red. It may have random dirt specs in the finish, it will have orange peal. But it will be stuck down and a high temperature red. Same price as listed below. Sorry but it just is what it is they say.

Are your calipers maroon, brown or even black from having too much fun with them? Is the clear coat flaking? Pink from the sun and wheel cleaning chemicals?
For EVO Brembo caliper painting and rebuilding we use Centric (parent company of Stoptech and Powerslot). Front calipers are $375 for a pair for the service, rears are $260 for the pair. This is for a complete rebuild and powdercoat of the calipers. Basically they are re-manufactured to like new condition. It takes about 5-6 working days to do your calipers so plan on some downtime with your car.
Here are a set of front and rear calipers that just came back:
