I need to change my front brake pads, any info?

Hi all,

I have 25,000 miles on the whip and about 10% pad left on the front. I bought new pads from Nissan and plan to install them with a friend. Do you guys know the difficulty level of this task? Also, are there any 6 generation install procedures with pics on the forum? Also, I know this is controversial but should I turn the rotors? I figured I was going to leave them alone. They say the pads will wear faster if you do not but how much faster can they wear? I mean 25,000 is pretty damn quick.

Thanks
Chris

As far as turning your rotors, I've heard that as long as your car is stopping smoothly, there is no need to turn your rotor. With just 10% left how does your pedal feel?
