Ok, I'm a liar. Still taking measurements...

Before redoing the guide pins yesterday the front passenger rotor was averaging 12% hotter. Today after the redo the front rotors have been at worst 4%, and usually 2% different. I just warmed the car up, found a straight empty street, and did a series of 40->10 mph slow downs. I managed to get the rotors pretty warm and the fronts were exactly the same temperature.

Obviously the computer assist matters. And they won't generally be equal temperature. But at some point a consistent temp variance seems like a problem. At least worth looking at. I eliminated a 10% averaging daily difference. I'm convinced my wheel spins freer now and that they're both related. Maybe I'm still a deluded simpleton but I'm a happy one.
