Friction Materials Standards Institute. Take some pics of the calipers when you change out the pads. Someone told me that those particular calipers required "screwing" the piston back in, because it is constantly adjusting itself for the emergency brake. A few years ago Bob checked in to that and reported that that was not correct. He said you just compress it back in like non-emergency brake equipped calipers.
