I can't press the piston back ar enough to fit the new pads. I tried the brake tool designed to depress the piston, but its only going sa far. I have a 95 240sx.

Please tell me what to do

thank youJoseph

you're not supposed to force them back, they screw back in... not sure if its counter clockwise or clockwise.... but turn it a certain direction, and you'll get the point. There should be like 2 grooves in the piston so that you can use like needle nose pliers or something.
