Hi guys,
I need to change the front calipers coz they are starting to make squeeling noise. I need some walkthrough on how to change the front calipers. Is it easy? Do I need special tools for this? I might also change the rotors, maybe you could also give me some infos for this.
I could have brought it to a mechanic but I am kinda broke right now. Thank you!

I wouldn't worry about slotted or drilled. Especially on our cars where the front discs are so damned small. I wish I had $1K to get the big brake kit from CorkSport.93_mx3_gs wrote:might as well change the rotors. If you get OEM replacements from like autozone, they are only like 29.99 a side in the front and 17.99 in the back or...get some slotted/cross drilled for some better braking power for up around 2 - 300.oo
