I ordered my EBC Greenstuffs tonight and I should have them early next week. Chris and I have both done front brakes before, but not on my S14. Are there any tricks to getting the front calipers off after undoing the 4? bolts? I just rotate the caliper away from the rotor after unscrewing the bolts, right?

Now, for the rotors--what do I need to do to take my rotors off? I need to take them and have them turned (please be confident for me that they're turnable--the car's had the brakes replaced before and I hope there's enough left that I don't have to buy new rotors yet :crossesfingers: ). After I have the caliper freed, what do I need to do to remove the rotor?

Thanks in advance!
