Yeah, the previous owner pretty much ran the car into the ground, so the brakes are sooo bad I'm not even driving it right now. I had the rear tire off for a few seconds to see what was wrong and holy crap they are shot, they got so hot that it looks like the rotor material melted and flowed out away from the pad. And i use the term pad fairly loosely as it is more like a 1/8" thickness of the backing plate that is left. Where are the allen heads that hold the rotor on? I only ask because I didn't see anything of the like when i had the wheel off. It is in fact a two opposed piston caliper on the 124's.
