Can't say I've rebuilt the Brembos. But on the standard brakes I just use compressed air and a block of wood to catch the piston.

Let us know how that works out.. I tried pulling them out and they would not budge (did not have those nifty tools though). air-compressor and blocks of wood method worked for me.
