Don't know about the rear wiper, but Nissan is finally selling the Skyline
in the US. Its called the GT-R, has 480 horsepower out of a twin turbine V6
& costs about $85k US.

I think it's pretty safe to say the GT-R will be a "niche" vehicle.

I've been driving for almost forty years. I have never had a need to
look out the rear window of any vehicle I have driven over the years.
Side mirrors are far more accurate to use to keep track of what is going
on around any vehicle.

So, I got the new caliper on last night, went on without any major
issues, biggest problem was finding hose to help with the line
bleeding, ( ended up using some gas line from an old weed whip)
Everything went on just like it should have, no stuck bolts that
couldn't be freed ect.. Thanks to all for you help!
Once I got the old caliper off and could pull at the piston boot
without worry, I could definitely tell what the problem was. There
was a good amount of rust on the side of the piston.
thanks again.

Maybe not, but Honda's engines are made of metal and actually function. The
picture you provided is of a crude felt-tip-pen drawing on paper. Big
whoop.

Following our time visiting this week's Tokyo Motor Show, we had the opportunity to sit down for a small group interview at Honda's world headquarters with freshly-minted CEO Takanobu Ito, who took over the reigns at Honda from Takeo Fukui just this past June.
