Worked with my friend on his 2011 X. If you fellow Evolution owners could check out my video and let me know how we did it would be great! Plan on doing many more projects on our cars and would love to help/share with everyone!

 

There are several good posts on how to swap pads and rotors. Not to say yours is bad, just potentially redundant.

 

Videos are always good. Keep em coming.

 

Nice job guys.

 

Visuals such as these videos always help, I know they help me. Good work.

 

Thanks for posting!

 

Pretty good video, but using a pry bar to push the pistons risks damaging the pistons or the caliper. Instead you should use an inexpensive purpose-built tool like this: http://www.corvettestoreonline.com/s...?productid=744

 

Kool video. I will be replacing my rotors soon. They are making a loud whistling noise every time I brake lightly. when I brake hard rotors don't make any noise at all. I am also starting to see groves on the edge of rotors. Somewhat like the pads cutting into rotors. Thanks for vid.

 

What tools did you use to complete the job?

 

only comment: it's "Evo 10" not "Evo X"

 

Thank you

 

My one criticism is rather petty and/or ****, but I'll make it anyway to maintain my record.

When you have worn the pads down a lot, you should really open a bleeder when you press the pistons back (using the correct tool). Why? Because if you have worn the pads down a lot, you will be retracting the pistons a lot. If you leave the bleeders closed, you are forcing brake fluid back up through the system. This, in general, isn't that big a deal, but we happen to have a rather fancy ABS unit and it takes just one piece of crud to jam one of its valves. If you are retracting the pistons a lot, you might actually move enough fluid for a piece of crud, which usually start in the caliper, to make it all the way back to the ABS unit. Not good. And you're probably going to replace all the brake fluid anyway, so why not start the process now by cracking one or more bleeders while retracting the pistons?
