Rear Brake Problem
I just replaced the brake pads on the rear of my GSR and I put the parking brake up and then down to release it, then tryed to drive, but now the rear brake wont loosen up. It is driving the parking brake is on. When I try to go, the car is held back. What do I need to do, or what did i forget to do?

Adjust your parking brake. You can get to this by removing the parking brake cover console, and adjusting the brake nut counter-clockwise, until the brakes no longer drag (You can check this last bit by jacking up the back of the car and rotating the wheels manually)
Your brake should take no more than 9 clicks to tighten, and shouldn't take less than 6

Never had to do this before. Only time I've had this problem was when I screwed up during hte install of the pads since they fit in a certain way. If the piston is not rotated correctly then this will cause the same problem.
