okay help me out pls with rotor pad install q's
well, I got the rears done with my x drilled and slotted brembos plus hawk HPS pads.
after I put them on, I Went to try them out witht he parking brake. it worked so so.
when I first got the car, the parking brake did not work, so one day I adjusted it from the inside, not from the brakes, and it worked, but slowley lost its effect untill it stopped working. So I put the pads in, and it works so so again.
But aftert I used it, My right rear wheel will not spin by hand, but my left will with a bit of force.
will this change when I flush the entire brake fluid system and pump the brakes a few times? or did I do somthing wrong in the install?

nevermind, I guess the problem was that the piston in the caliper wasnt lined up right..
Jeeze, Ive never had to ask questions with a brake pad change up untill the rears on an FD!!
