Akebono reman calipers
This is the response I received.
Thank you for your interest in Akebono Calipers. Yes Akebono manufactures calipers for many Subaru vehicles, we are also an authorized re-manufacturer for them. Unfortunately we do not have all available product in our Aftermarket program. The SVX 4WD is a very unique car, my last report indicates there is only about 10,000 registered in the US. With that said the sales potential and marketability is rather small and do not offer it for sale through the Aftermarket division. The Subaru dealer would be the best place to get the best product for you car. Thank you, Edward B. Gerhardt Akebono Corporation 34385 W. Twelve Mile Rd.

That's pretty weak. But i guess you have to look at it from their standpoint, theres probobly a low percentile of the remaining SVX owners that would buy the calipers. The production would cost more than the amount they sell.
