Right now im working on a 03 wrx sedan and I am trying to replace my oem rear rotors with the stoptech stage 2 kit.. I have the front completed in under and hour and now im working on the back. I cannot seem to get the rear rotors off.. Its too late at night to goto a hardware store and get a 8mm bolt to stick in the hole any more suggestions? Do I need to remove the HUB bolt in order to get the rear rotor off? I've searched all over and the only thing i can find is a picture of the rotor on and then it being off doesn't really tell you how they got it off..
Thanks

 

The rear rotors come off the same way as the fronts. The threaded holes in the rotor will accept a capscrew that pops them off in seconds. I know this may not help you at a late hour but using those screws are a heckuva lot easier than using a hammer to try to pound them off. Plus, you don't have to try to pound around the backing plate/dust shield.
