well it made it home!
i got everything pretty much taken care of and it made its 40 mile maiden voyage all the way home without a hitch. the brakes are scary and its probably the most underpowered car i have ever driven but it should be a good daily grind after some more work.
when i push the brakes it goes flying to the left. any ideas?

the pull to the left went away but ill probaly go through the brakes anyway. but no i am noticing a lot of noise from the front pass wheel. sounds very much like grinding things and not happy thoughts at all. maybe a wheel bearing? how hard are they to change out?

^^^bingo. if the caliper is still good and easy to compress the piston, you may have a frozen or poor;y greased slide pin. also, the right caliper may not be working at all. finally, inspect or replace the brake hoses, as you may have a collpased hose, which will collapse internally and you will not be able to tell if it is in fact collapsed. as far as teh slowest car that you've driven, try a chevy sprint ER or geo metro XFI, lol. those have obnly one compression ring per cylinder and while they get GREAT gas mileage, are terribly slow.
