i recommend getting it done by someone to get the rotors spun, BUT if your gonna do it yourself, just un hook the break caliper, put it on with new pads which im assuming you must have invested in *ahem ahem* and let her rip

warning: your brakes are gonna suck at first cuz ya gotta break in the rotors, but im currently drunk cuz the rents are gone, so what do i know?

Please read the announcement in the how to/install forum. Moving to suspension tech.

EDIT: It also helps to get the response you want if you post the nature of the help you need in your thread title. i.e. "Help: How do you replace rotors?" so that people know what you want instead of skipping on by.

Check out www.diyperformance.com I did a little how-to on replacing rotors and I think the admin did a better version with pics and everything. Really, on the Lancer, it's as easy as changing the wheels.

btw, keep in mind the how-to forum is only for actual complete how-tos, all requests need to be made in the relevant tech/show forum. Thanks. Also, make thread titles a little more specific, as I've seen many threads titles "help" and not one of them were about the same thing.

yeah, I don't think you can change the actual title of a thread, so I changed it for you, but I see you changed the general subject. It's all good, did diyperformance have anything for you? When I get around to it, I'll see if I can post a link or copy it in our own how-to forum.
