i nearly finished the same night i started, which is highly unusual for me.

i ran into a rather annoying issue: the front rotors that tire warehouse gave me were too big!! before i even installed them, i measured them against the old rotor and the new ones were about half an inch bigger in diameter.. i figured "well, if they still fit, i'll have a big brake kit!" but alas, the caliper wouldn't reach its mounting bracket over the larger disc.

when i was going through the part over the phone with the guy at tire warehouse, he asked me if the car had 14 or 15-inch wheels.. it has 15's and i told him as such.. i'm thinking that maybe i should've said 14? well, i'm exchanging the rotors for a set of 14" wheel parts and we'll see if it works..

the pads went in like butter.. i used the ultra-awesome "swing up the caliper" technique that subafreak showed me last time we worked on my car, and the pads are sitting pretty now.. just have to get that #$(^ rotor in..
