Anyone know how the front rotor comes off ? (1995 6th Gen Jap Import).
As I need to take it off to replace a snapped wheel stud. I've heard that they just slide off, or if they are a bit tight there are some tapped holes where you insert a couple of bolt's, then you tighten the bolt's up & the rotor gradually comes off. Is this the correct way ? I've tried this way but the bolt's feel tight & I don't want to snap them. Or has anybody got any other idea's. Thanks in advance guy's.

use the bolt. its so much easier than hammering away at it.
as for the bolt feeling tight, I don't remember all that well, but I believe mine went in pretty easily. couple turns and the rotor just pops off. |

take a hammer and bang it a couple of times. you don't have to bang from the back, the front is okay. It'll loosen up the rust thats holding it on.

Dont hit the rotor surface or the studs with the hammer though.
