i swear my car is cursed

ok well ive always had problems like 3 new tranny's new toque converter, broken engine mount, (im actually a slow careful driver idk)... then when i went to put eibach prokit it took 8 hours becuz every corner showed a problem!. yesterday i went to pout new brake pads and i got oem pads coated em with plastic spray to prevent vibration/ and sprayed down rotors with cleaner etc i put pads in and the caliper is just to narrow no mater what it wont fit on... then i get it to go on and the brakes are so tight they locked my rotor up which isnt good. i had the brake fully spaced out and everything was done just like its supposed to be done. but it was just too big so what i did was put new pad on inside and put old pad (still has about 1/8" pad left on outside and it fit wht ima do is wait for 1/8" to be gone and then 1/8" will be gone from the new pad as well THEN ima take out older pad and put in new pad (i should have 1/8" more space making them work fine.(( the lil indicator is on the pad i put on yeserday so when i need to replace it'l tell me to replace the oldest pad etc. i just dont know wtf is wrong with my car yes it was one of the first 50 made of the newer body style but still WTF and i dont know what to do everything is a prob with my car ugh
