This is the reason I haven't finished my aspire rear swap. They killed me just getting the front from a junk car and then have to replace everything anyway. Stupid.
You nailed it right there. Every time I've pulled an Aspire swap I ask myself why am I pulling the rotor and caliper since I'll be replacing them anyway and all I really need is the knuckle...but they always charged a decent price for the whole assembly and it's easier to pull than parting it out on the spot. They've since went up on all their prices and seem to have gotten more greedy. I wonder if I pulled a swap now if they would charge for the rotor, caliper, knuckle....maybe even the bearings and seals based on last weeks experience
In other Festiva related news. Motoxpress and I tweaked the new stainless exhaust system some more last night and I ditched the Yosh pipe in favor of a Borla. It's louder now, but sounds way better....and definitely doesn't sound like a stock B3 anymore
