Brakes = DO NOT use those cheap ass pads from the zone. You will be sorry. Your life depends on how well your car stops. Get some good (not necessairly the very top) pads and rotors from Carquest, Napa, etc.

The ABS light comes on in dash when key is first put into 'on' position. No light, no ABS. Also check under hood on passenger's side for a block the size of your hand with several lines coming out. That is tha ABS system.
In regards to your response to the valve cover gaskets leaking: Confirmed. That's what my dad suspected.

As for the brake pads and such, my friend uses them in his Supra, and they work fine. I'm on a budget.

Do you think the rotors are screwed though? It's like a grinding, vibrating, thumping on the brake pedal.
