Ok, first thanx for your post(s) XHondaTech...really apreciate it.

Second, i want to clarify somethin before we go any farther, you say its BEST to use an "on the car" lathe? And NOT take the rotors off? Is it worth the $50 i'm saving? I can get the two done locally for $80. I got the $50 with the pep-boys price per rotor of $7 and the other $16 in parts i purchased for this job(36mm socket and breaker bar). All which can be returned if i decided not to do this job.

How long has "on the car" lathes been around? I kinda thought it was a newish thing(about 5 years old). How well did refinishing the rotors off the car before work out?

In other words, whats the chance that i go and take the rotors off and have them resurfaced and the pusating STILL be there? I dont want that!

Thanx!
Dave
