Need 12a Rotor!
 
FUCK!

well...the side seals are pretty much embedded into my rear rotor on my 12a...i broke all 6 side seals trying to remove them (with most of the seals still partially IN the rotor) and also broke 3 corner seals.

so...would anyone like to donate me a 12a rear rotor or sell it to me at a small fee (im on a tight budget as is...:()? ill pay shipping!!!

hmmm, i think you have two 12a engines out there...right brenden? although i doubt you want to tear down the one you have in your car ;)

now explain why you need a new rotor??? my side seals were also embedded in my engine, we took old pieces of the side seals and stuck them down in and pounded em lightly with a hammer, the pieces eventually came out. And can i ask how you broke the corner seals???? How do the irons look? Rotor housings? Im not sure why you need a rotor, you just need to thoroughly clean the carbon out of the one you got, its a PITA!

call me if you get a chance

Soak the rotor in a can of carb cleaner overnight. I bet the carbon loosens up enough to allow you to dig out the broken seals.
