- Hey guys!
I desperately needed to change out my CRZ brake rotors & pads so I thought I'd make a video out of it. I could tell my pads went bad and it was cheaper to just buy the entire replacement kit. I hope this video helps you if and when you decide to do this on your own. Special thanks to my dad for always lending a hand and showing the way!
You can buy the kit at: ebay.to/2jYAuPR

Hey man just did my CRZ rotors and pads. I couldn’t have done it without your video and I really appreciate you taking the time to make it. Cheers!
Hey bro! Glad I could help! 😬👍🏽. Thank you for watching!
A tip: you can watch movies on Flixzone. Been using it for watching lots of of movies these days.
Great video. Thank you and your dad for taking the time to make this. Helps a ton.
Thank you brotha for being here and watching!🙏🏽 I’m glad we could help 😬.
Just came back to this video after a few years. Wasn't sure if I previously did the front or back on mine. The video immediately opened to the later half where you did the rears. Going to use the second half of this video today. That brake clip would have been the part where I started getting frustrated without the video. Thanks for the help!
So glad to hear man! Glad I could help! :D Thanks for watching!
Thank you so much Tommy! I've been doing my own brakes for over twenty years and I've never seen pistons that need to be rotated to compress them. You may not be a life saver, but you have saved me a lot of hassle.
😂🔥 glad I could help! Thank you for stopping by and watching! I appreciate the support! 😬
Same thing here man ! Was thinking my caliper was stuck until I found your video
Your door handle replacement video really helped me out a couple years back.
Today, this video came in very handy. I watched, I changed out my pads, everything went well.
Thanks.
This makes me happy. I haven't posted in ages but it's comments like yours that make me want to get back in it. So glad it helped you out! cheers hermano!
This vid came in handy for my rear caliper. To disconnect the parking brake cable. If you open the brake reservoir cap, it makes it easier to compress the caliper. Just make sure it doesn't overflow. Always a good idea to grease up the shims, hub screws and inside wheel with ceramic grease to prevent seizing.
Thanks for watching bro! 😬👍🏽 glad I could help and thank you for your tip!
thanks for this. I just did my brakes for the first time and came back to your video a few times! very helpful
So glad it helped! Thank you for watching!
Do you have a new link for the brake pads and rotors? The eBay link doesn't exist.
Bro you videos save my freaking life
I appreciate it bro! Thanks for watching :D Enjoy your new brakes! haha.
I remember when I changed my brake pads, I didn’t know about the clamp trick. I was freaking out for like 10 minutes because I couldn’t get the caliper back on with the new pads😂
Preskiiez_86 😂😂😂😂. It be like that sometimes. Thanks for watching Presi!
The clamp trick is old school...learned it from my Dad when I was 12. Now I have the proper kit, but I keep the C-clamp in a greased in a bag just in case.
Rotor retainer screws a major pita! Had to drill all mine out.
Awesome video Tommy, and much appreciated, I have a 2014 crz, been noticing a little grinding noise from brakes first thing in the morning when I start off. Will definitely Check them out, thank you
Hope everything is okay bro! Glad I could help. Let me know what happens! Thank you for watching! 😬💪🏽
@@TommyMccoyMedia I also have a '14 that started to make grinding noise but only when it's been sitting for hours and turning left while moving. My brother -in-law (B.I.L.) told me he'd help me do the front brakes and rotors, which is why I'm watching this. Local shop said my pads were down to 3MM and they are 10MM new. My B.I.L. whom was a pro. motorcycle mechanic, said the grinding sound is probably the calipers getting stuck against the rotors or something to that effect.
Hey man, this is a decent video but you really should clean and re-grease the slide pins to stop them jamming over time. You should also be using factory torque setting and threadlock for the caliper carrier mount bolts and the bolts from the caliper to slider. I suggest to make those part of your next video as the sliders are very important for maximising the life and performance of the discs and pads and the torques are there for safety.
I appreciate you tapping in. I have gotten rid of the z a long time ago but I appreciate your insight! Going to pin so others can see this!
Great video! My Z has 85k miles on the pads and tires lol. Gonna change the pads this spring. Thanks!!
How’d it go?! Thanks for watching!😬🙏🏽
@@TommyMccoyMedia Haven't had a chance yet, but i'll get there soon lol
Your video was extremely helpful. Definitely saved me some $$$. I'll be keeping an eye on this channel. 👍
YOU are the man! Thanks for watching! I haven't uploaded in ages but I look forward to here sometime in the future.
Thanks, I have some scraping on one of the rear rotors of my 2011 CRZ. I'm going to investigate tomorrow if I can fix it temporarily, I would have been stuck without knowing the trick with the pliers.
Is the front and rear brake pads are same and interchangeable?
Like from a school a middle school or high school
Thank you for sharing. Video going to help a lot tomorrow.
Hey! I’m glad people are still using it! Good luck! Haha
Are you a coach
Those two jis screws are similar to the spleen. They served a purpose at one time but they no longer do. As easy as the two screws came out for you mine were equally as difficult lol. I had to pulverize mine. I believe they were used in either the manufacture or assembly process and then left behind. Go ahead and take a drill bit and some wd40 to them.
Link didn’t work :( do you know who the seller is?
Is the Y spring on the back pads also?
Just replacing all brake pads for the 1st time on my Z @ 105,000 miles. Wow.
How'd it go?! Thanks for watching!
I am wondering if DC5S rotors and calipers can fit into CRZ without any mod hmm... Have you tried it???
I personally have not bro! 😬. Thank you for watching!
Great info!
where can you get rear calipers - i hear honda sells them for $400 each?
I saw some used ones on eBay for $50-70 a pop! Not a bad price to be honest. You can even get some beefier higher quality ones through some vendors on EBAY, just do the research before you pull the trigger. Best of luck, thank you for watching! Keep me posted!
@@TommyMccoyMedia thank you my friend. I brought mine to the mechanic, and he is having a very hard time finding them.
Do you have video on replace the passenger axel
I’m new to all this car stuff, what’s the point in compressing the pistons?
Steph Odz it’s to get the caliper to clear the brake pads. If the pistons are not compressed you won’t be able to mount the caliper 😬. When you step on the brake pedal, that piston pushes down on the pad which makes contact with the rotors. Thanks for watching dude!💪🏽
Tommy Mccoy thank you!!
Muy bien 👌🏻
Great video dude! Just a tip for the JIS bits, if you take a #2 Phillips bit and grind the tip off with a grinding wheel just a little bit they fit perfectly!
You are the people’s hero. Thank you for watching and bringing us that info! You da man! 😬🙏🏽🙌🏽
Why did you replace the rotors?
When you put in new pads you usually want to also replace the rotors. Both brand new surfaces so that there isn’t any uneven wear when the brakes are activated. Plus it’s convenient, your there already so you might as well change them. Thanks for watching 🙏🏽
Dope vid 👍🏽
"Dont touch the rotors surface..."
*touches rotor surface
lol
coalcache 🤣😅 had to re-watch that and I feel like such a noob.
@@TommyMccoyMedia No matter. SOP is to clean them with brake cleaner anyway....though gloves are always good to use.
Where you based? Your car is virtually rust free... My dad would never have helped me out with my car. 😂
Din Phu haha I’m located in El Paso Texas bro! 🙌🏽 There’s no moisture here at all lmao. Thanks for watching! 😬
@@TommyMccoyMedia I was actually in Vegas 2 weeks ago. All the cars looked clean, even the wheels. The heat was relentless...
Hawt 😍
Lilyann Denby All you ♥️☺️ thanks babe.
🥰😘🥵
Mister it me William
king- anime 147 YMS William?!
@@TommyMccoyMedia yes sir
king- anime 147 what’s going on bud!? Glad to hear from you. Miss you all very much.
king- anime 147 I do! Reach out to me on ig. @tommy.gunnz we will y’all there.
What do you use to edit ur vids?🤔
SuperRufus09 I use Adobe Premiere Pro! But I’d highly suggest premier pro, Apple is just way better 👊🏽.
Tommy Mccoy Thank you Mr. McCoy!
i just use one of the old pads to compress the piston back in with.
Front piston or rear?
@@Shinobi117 front piston, need to screw in the rear piston with pliers or special tool
@@R33F3RMONSTER awesome. Thanks
@@R33F3RMONSTER yep pliers work well. Hoping I can figure out a better hack that will keep whatever I’m using to bite on the groove of the piston to stay in place
Bro u miss the part hot to take off the e brake clip man 😢
I did mention to take it off that way you can have some play. I hope this video still helped! Thanks for watching!
Wee wee
