Any one in Delaware out there
oh yea definitely. i'm going jew for my wedding, as cheap as possible! for a DJ, i'll just plug my iPod into a rented sound system for a photographer, i'll put 2-3 disposable cameras on each table
Hell yeah! lol I'm still fighting with Paolo over hiring a videographer. I dont think its necessary to pay someone 1500+. I've got friends with video cameras...that will do lol
at the next meet you guys have I will bring the carcasses of my old brakes, lol. But seriously you need to get them done ASAP Matt. I greased the sliding pins so hopefully that was issue. I also noticed the rear caliper piston felt like it was stuck on clamped mode. and The E-brake is pretty tight so that might need to be adjusted. my cousin said he couldnt here any rubbing but that doesnt mean the same problem wont happen again.

I have 24000 miles on my car now. I waited waaaayy tooo long to do them. You'd be shocked how bad they are. I mean the outside pads on the rear rotors still looked new but the insides were gone. No pad at all, just metal on metal. The fronts looked brand new but I got slotted rotors so I wanted to get the fronts done too. If I wasnt doing the slots I'd have just done the rears.

as for what we did with the caliper tool, we bought a universal one (lol) and then we took a air powered cutter to it and fabricated it to fit. If you need help and if I have time, I will try to assist you. Hopefully you have a good stache of tools, lol. I dont remember what size tools we would need, 16mm? P.S. Rear brakes are a bit of a pain. start with the rear left rotor and open the bleeder valve when compressing the piston. You will need a rubber mallet to bang the caliper off after its unbolted since it seems to bite the rotor.
Follow the write up it the DIY on this forum. It is absolute perfection, lol. the only thing it doesnt tell you is that the piston compressor tool has to be specific for the cobalt. Needle nose plyer could work, but it will hurt your arm, lol.
