I would like advice from anyone that has changed the brake pads in a Mazda3 MPS. Are there any specialist tools required?

Welcome aboard .. hope u enjoy your stay !!!
Any advice on whether I should attempt this task at home would be appreciated. Also, what price would I expect to pay for pads, front and rear.
Thanks
Moved to correct section;
Yeah you can if your mechanically minded
Ive not done it but heard you can ...OEM pads are pricey.... check out forum sponser GSL rallysport for pads
Oh and BTW!
I would take it to a mec or a friend that could show you how to do it, If you have no idea on a brake change.
As for costs on pads, two choices
Hawk $170
Mintex $105
did it myself and purchased Hawk pads from MPSgarage

and give it a go, else im sure a member wouldnt mind doing it for a case
Have heard good things about the AFM A1RM
the process is rather simple and can be done very quickly, but if you are asking that question, then i would recommend that you take the car to get it done professionally
