and brought me my brembo Blanks for my 92 civic vx hatchback



How hard is it to change these? or do i need any special tools?

 

It’s easy to change them if you don't strip the Phillips screws, I suggest you drill the screws out of your old rotors rather then **** around with them.

Using an impact screw driver is a must when changing the rotors

use some WD-40 and a tool that they sell at harbor freight i dont know what its called but let me check.

 

On my 94 vx I didnt have a screw that held the rotor in place..

you could have gone to autozone or advance bought them for 24 each....a blank rotor is a blank rotor....trust me....brembo is not gonna help you stop better!

yes and no.. autozone rotors are JUNK... they warp very easily... we only use them on customers cars if customers request "the cheap ****"

and another trick to take off the phillips head screws is to hit them with a pick.. It will basically break the screw a bit, but also break it loose

 

sears has em. not more than 40 and always a good tool to have around. I love mine.

 

I did the rotors on my 92 CX and found that the screws come out real easy if you drive a little frist, to warm up the rotor. I found out the hard way and ended up cracking one rotor.

So what pads are you going to use?

I hope you aren't just planning on slapping those on with old pads...

Exactly!! Man it is so easy to change the rotors that you're gonna laugh when you do it!

 

i suggest using tampax super absorbant pads.....j/k looks sweet,post pics after install!

 

"jimmy before u can go out and play on ur car u have to clean ur room!"

 

lol

 

going to put them on tomorrow , will take pics

 

You can get an impact driver from advance for like 10 bucks it comes with 4 bits also that is a TOTAL must for any car that has screws holding the rotors. It makes it a lot easier. IMO drilling them out is to much work i had to do that on a car a little bit ago at the house i was working on my buddys car at they didn't have an impact driver and i didn't bring any of my tools that wasn't fun.

 

if you don't ahve an impact wrench use a heat wrench (i.e. torch ) untill there red hot and use approiate screwdriver they will come out like butter

 

I got my impact screwdriver from autozone i think, I've done about 30-40 brake jobs. I think I paid $10-20, piece of junk but it works.
