I have bought rebuild kits on Ebay. Here in the US. I like to buy a lot of OEM parts from ServiceHonda.com. They stock most OEM (Japan Bikes) parts. The front and rear caliper are the same as what is on a YZ250/450 bike, just can't remember what years.

As for brake pins I would recommend finding the Stainless steel aftermarket ones as they don't rust or wear as fast. If I recall Zeta Racing makes them and so does Moose Racing. Plus the aftermarket ones eliminate that stupid little cap/cover and are a bolt head instead of the allen head type pin.
