I have a 2007 Value Leader 2.4L G6 Sedan with 75k miles and it is time to replace the brake pads and rotors. I have already bought some EBC Rotors and Pads to match, and plan to do the install myself with a friend.
Assuming I have no tools at all, what tools do I need to have on hand to make this as painless as possible and of course to do it right. I only plan to do the fronts at the moment, may replace the back if I continue to have issues.
I found something here about a Borg Tool: ...?

My friend mentioned something about needing a clamp and/or some brake pushing tool.
I will have a Torque Wrench, are the published specs on what to torque the rotors to? I will also have some generic tools to get the car in the air, and sockets and the like, the really common stuff.
Is there a manual or something?
As you can probably tell this is my first brake replacement, in my defense I am a younger member, but I have no worries because I am a very technical person.
If there is a post about this a link will work too, but most of the threads I have found are just comments on what pads/rotors are good, I dont plan on returning mine, and if they are "s**t" by your standards then keep it to yourself please.
