i recently bought 3 brake caliper pistons from 2 different sources & brands & all 3 are a little taller then the original stock pistons, will this be a problem if i use them ? ( i need 2 more) |

I don't think it will be a problem.... but that is guesswork. I believe they are Z1 pistons. |

the ones that I bought, were 1mm taller than stock. if you use new pads and use the shims; they are tight. I cut 1mm from mine. |

Don't always believe what aftermarket vendors say are correct applications.... I guess you already found that out. The KH are the same as Z1. |

they are 1.2mm taller , if i remove the alum ring spacer from behind the pad with the screw they work better....what purpose does that ring serve ??? |

Is this what you refer to? http://3cyl.com/mraxl/partid/list2/43076-001.jpg If so, that is to reduce/eliminate brake squeal. |

HVC caliper pistons are good. There is a variation among vendors for the height dimension on replacement aftermarket pistons. |
