Very simple... When you look at the rotor, there is going to be a threaded hole that you can insert a bolt into. What this will do is force the rotor away from the hub.....

attached is a picture of whta im talking about... You will need a 12mm bolt, what I generally do is find another bolt with a 12mm head (somewhere like in the engine bay thats not really important, IE not holding in something vital... IE a trim piece) and stick it in there.....

I dont have the speces of the bolt in front of me, but its going to be any 12mm bolt head that is on the car.....

Welcome to the board.

Be sure to download a manual. G20net has some of them posted, but you need the TSB also.

All are available at http://www.nissan-techinfo.com/infiniti/ for a one day subscription.
