Does anyone know how to install rotors and pads? I need to replace them on my 2002 WRX and I'm looking to save some $$ on installation. Send me a PM if you can help.

Service Manual (purchaseable online)
Not someone I want to try on my own... maybe after watching someone do it.
Pads = super easy
Rotors = more work, but still straightforward
For sure.Quote:

I'd much rather change everything on a car with all disk brakes rather than messing with the drum brakes. Changing brakes sounds like it'd be a difficult task, but it's actually pretty easy. The only bad part with the rotors is if they're rusted in there at all, but that's nothing that a BFH can't fix. ;)
Also, I have the entire WRX service manual on CD ROM, but it's at my house. I could try to email it to you later if it's not too large or I could just mail it to you since I sold my WRX a couple of years ago and have no use for it anymore.
Funken, PM me if you want a hand. I've got a garage and all the tools. I've done the brakes on a bunch of subies. Super easy. Good ol beer drinking work.
I'm south of town.
