Brakes - How To Guide?
Hi All,
I'm changing my front discs and pads tomorrow on my 2001 WRX (I have all the parts).
Can anybody direct me to a how to guide or advise me of any pitfalls/specific tools required?
Have searched but found nothing too useful.
Cheers,
Charlie

If you've done any spanner work before then it's nothing to be scared of.
Take wheels off, remove pads, remove calipers and disks 'should' just come away. May take a little encouragement with a few taps of a hammer then turn and tap etc..
I've done this a couple of times myself and it's pretty straight forward. Sorry can't remember the exact detail of changing pads but again it's self evident if you've ever done pads before.

Thanks for the reply and setting my mind at rest!
