I bought stoptech stage 2 rotors for my non brembo coupe, along with HKS pads.

Ill be installing these with my friend's uncle, who is a "mechanic". He rebuilt my friends truck's transmission - so i know he knows what he's doing.

But i know you need to bolt down the bolts to certain torque specs (anyone know what they are btw?), and i need a ..."breaker" bar? - im sure he will know what to do along the way, but what tools should i get to make the job easier?

Ill be doing it on Sunday, so if you guys can get back to me asap id appreciate it! thanks

 

Check my thread up in the sticky section. A breaker bar will make the removal of the 22mm front caliper bolts much easier. The space is tighter on the rear caliper and the 19mm bolts. I used a half inch ratchet for the rear and needed a short extension to get around the the suspension. A breaker bar is just a long solid handle with a 90 degree bend at the end with a socket holder...thing really long ratchet that does not..rachet.

The stoptech threads mention a tools list. PB Blaster made the rotor removal easy for me. The torque for the caliper bolts are mentioned in the directions...but the front was around 95-100ft/lbs and the rears were around 65 ft/lbs. Take you time, read, and you should be fine.
