I read a post about this previously but i searched and couldnt find it.

I bought brake pads for my 92 civic si hatch. I just went to change them and i couldn't get my rotors off (the 2 screws). Does anyone know a specific size that they take.Will a tork (sp?) head fit them? thats what the guy at autozone said and i didnt know to believe them or not? ANY help makes a difference.

If the head of the bolt is star shaped you need a torx bit there are different sizes but you should be able to pick up a set for pretty cheap .

You need an impact screwdriver. I saw a mechanic use one when removing the rotor to replace a broken wheel stud. It's pretty cool, you hit the end with a hammer and works like a ratchet.

I went and bought the Impact tool for 9.99 at autozone.
I got all of the screws out in the LF rotor but in the RF rotor i cant get 1 out.
I'am going to get my rotors turned tomorrow (ill get the other screw out tomorrow)
