well at my mechanics shop installing my rear spoiler , i decided to learn how to do a full brake job. it was suprisingly easy, turned out to be a seized sliders on the rear brakes, ( the car was an e30 325ix) , it was a lot of fun to learn and im gonna change my pads within the next comming weeks when i go to replace my left front speed sensor which is causing my abs light to go on.

Good stuff yo! Changing breaks is probably one of the easiest things one can do on a car. A little more of a pain in the arse if ya got brake drums as opposed to disk brakes, but still relatively easy.

And you call yourself an enthusiast? Get a tool box, and a 2 ton jack, some duct tape, and a manual. Sheesh.

Oh, that's right. You'd rather get raped to change your oil, do your brakes, change a light bulb, find your ass, than spend the 15$ on a good tool set. My bad.

LOL

1. cars come and go... and the mods go with them... unless you plan on owning the same car for the rest of your life.

2. quality tools will be with you forever.
