well, that's sorta what i wound up doing.  held caliper in vise, applied
pressure with bar clamp, tightening after every half turn or so of the
piston, and the steady geyser of brake fluid told me I was doing ok.

Then I did the caliper for the side I was replacing :-)

ding!

btw, my 90Q has ATE front calipers.  fits same pads, different guide pin
set up.

thanks all!

now to put the back seat back in and go for a test accident, I mean
drive....
