That's pretty much it. It's best if you get a couple of new copper washers
for the hydraulic fitting.

You MUST do a thorough bleed, as anything less will leave air in the new
caliper and you'll have a soft pedal.
That caliper is really complex inside, with many nooks and crannies that
trap air bubbles. Get a nylon mallet while you're at the parts place;
you'll need it.

Such a thing actually exists. And I took a picture of it.

This Nissan Skyline of unknown vintage lives across the street from where I
work, and I discovered it just last week. What a cool car. I always
wondered why Nissan never sold it in Canada or the US.

I have never seen the need for a rear wiper on any vehicle. They are a
waste through and through.

You live in the land of vitamin K and Alpine, with it's climate, and you
think a rear wiper/washer system is a waste? I hate cars without rear
wiper/washers. They are not a waste... you have obviously never driven
a car with the system.
