CDubb, that isn't what I meant. Try doing a search for a caliper stuck thread, or a brake change DIY thread. Or if you want, you can post it as a new thread in the new member area.
Posting in "General Automotive" subforum, which is defined as things NOT related to the RX-8 is incorrect. It's even more inaccurate to post the question in threads which have no possible connection to your topic.

What makes me laugh is all these pictures I'm seeing (and cars I see on the road) of front wheel drive cars that have huge rear spoilers. All those do is take power away from the front by lifting it off the ground, and it also makes them understeer like no one's business.
Not that many of them will ever be going fast enough to actually get any effect from the spoiler in the first place...

2) Most people aren't driving their car fast enough for a spoiler to really matter, whether it be a FWD, RWD or AWD. Even functional spoilers are essentially for looks for most cars on the street. With that in mind: Stupid, huge, "race spoilers" are not justified for most cars since they won't look cool or be functional.

I have to walk past this every day. Sorry for the tilt on the second photo, it was making me dizzy.
