If the piston were to come out of my brake caliper, I would put it back in. A heavy c-clamp will help. If you mean you don't have the piston, I don't see anything wrong with getting a caliper from the wrecker and cleaning it up. Piston ring in Winnipeg sells calipers for $60.00 a piece.

You'll have to be a lot more specific. What model is your Mx-3, and is it the front or back. You could also try posting in the "Want to Buy" forum.

But like I said, why not just put the piston back in??

ya because theres a seal. I am assuming its the rear your talking about for $150. honestly man just buy one. Theres probably a core price on top of that as well since there And on a note if you want a brand new calipers from mazda, there like $400
