@Snoopy_TXR nice project!

I don't I've ever seen your FRS on the streets.

@neutron256, do you have a drill? I'm trying to replace the rotors on my Civic but the screw is stripped.

I live in Brooklyn Park and don't travel too much. I usually just drive to work and back. Finished my project! Killed two birds with one stone by installing my Perrin intake and blacking out my headlights while the bumper was off.

Stripped? More detail please, is the head stripped the screw stuck, or the threads are stripped? I've got an assortment of extractors, taps, and most other tools for problem fasteners.

The head of the screw is stripped. Stupid Honda. They serve no purpose but to assist in holding the rotor during production of the vehicle. I can confirm that the FRS/BRZ doesn't have these screws on the rotor. @Black Tire stopped by with a drill set and we just drilled through the head. Thanks black tire!

Put about 300 miles on my car today, from St.Paul-Northfield-Winona and back. BTW, found a GREAT road for the FRS in Winona: Garvin Heights Road, seemed like a road straight out of Initial D.

Thanks auyu for helping me install SS brake lines, race pads and bleed the system. I may need heroic braking for all this snow!
