You need a caliper tool and a ratchet. Caliper tool is a cube with prongs on it, a couple dollars at a parts store or online.
Just turn the caliper tool and on the caliper and it will compress.

How do you compress the rear caliper on a infiniti g20 so it slides on the new brakes?
My 1999 infiniti G20 rear calipers have to be twisted clockwise in order to compress them. The auto parts stores have a tool set you can rent that will compress and twist at the same time. I went the cheap route and bought a universal cubed looking tool that attaches to a ratchet and it worked but was really hard to compress and twist at the same time. Definetly recommend the tool set rental.
