should help..

all the same thing kinda..

 

take off wheel, take off brakes. take off rotors. done.

 

Do the walkthrough up to the pads part. Once the pads are out, there are 2 bolts (14mm? 17mm? cant remember. its 14mm on my vr4) that hold the caliper arm on the car. They're on the back (inside) of the wheel well area.

Once they are off, support the caliper (zip ties, rope, etc) to prevent any stress on the brake line (i hang mine off the springs, they're light). Once that's off, if the rotor doesn't just pull off, smack it with a rubber mallet a bit til it does. The lugnuts on the wheel are the only thing that holds the rotor on, but it won't come off with the caliper there, though it can wiggle once the pads are out.

I like to clean up behind the rotor (pb blaster, scrub) and take advantage of cleaning while the wheel and rotor are off. After that, put the new rotor on, bolt the calipers back on, pads back in (make sure you compress the pistons first ), wheels on, lugnuts, drive.

 

nice short instructions^,but since i guess no one has done a real write up ill do one this weekend,im doing 2-piece slotted rotors,hawk ceramic pads and fluid flush with ATE superblue.

 

This was in the how to section already...

How is it that you know how to do the break pads but not the rotors?

 

what do you mean?you can take the pads off with out the rotor.How do you take the rears off??I cant just pull them off like the front,and dont see anything holding them on.Whats the secret??just like the front but they must be stuck on harder?

 

You have to make sure your e-brake is down for the rears cuz of the ebrake assembly in the rear. there are two holes in the rear rotor you can screw in a bolt and it will push up against the ebrake assembly and loosen the rotor and it will just slide right off but if you have your ebrake up it wont want to come off and it will be a pain in the ***. I found you dont have to take your pads out to change rotors as long as you dont have a huge lip on the old ones. I just used a pry bar and gave it slight pressure and it just popped right off. hope this helps.

 

if you do a how-to utilize the bolt removal method for the rear rotors

no one has ever taken pictures of how it's done

Easiest way, spray the axle nut with some sort of lube(wd40, PB blaster) then hit the rotor in a cross pattern with a robber mallet

 

if i remember correctly there is a small bolt hole on rotors you can thread a bolt into an it will pop the rotor right off
