I believe excessive dust can cause squeeling. Everytime you wash it out its ok. Maybe the pads your using have a high dust release content. Also check your rotors for grooves..maybe you got a small stone or chip stuck between the pad and rotor?

From wat i can see i have plenty left. R33 Racer i do live on 300metres of dirt road so im guessing that could be the case i have looked for a groove in the rotor an none there. But the thing that is puzzling me is i have had the car for over 12 months an this is the first time it has happened o well im changing the pads tomorrow so hopefully it will fix it. Cheers Jamie

might want to hit it with some brake cleaner, it's quite common for brakes to squeek (sit at a busy intersection for 10 minutes and every second car will have brake squeek), it's usually not a major problem, more of an annoyance. It's basically caused by the back of the brake pad vibrating/rubbing against where it touches the caliper, normally you put some anti-squeel grease on it when you put pads in.

You can get free brake safety checks at most brake places so might be an idea to go down and get their opinion on it.

      M35 Brake caliper replacement

      By Waders360 · Posted

      Hi from Canada, Both of my calipers are starting to fail. My car is a 2005 M35 Stagea ARX and I can't seem to find any parts or any cross reference caliper that would fit my car. Is there a company or a similar caliper that would fit and I could replace the OEM one. Or if anyone knows where I can find a new OEM. Any help is very appreciated. Let me know!

      S1 rb25/s14 starting problem

      Maf is a question mark but TPS  I have set at 0.47, the fact that I’m getting proper voltage range out of it with the key on leads me to believe it’s functioning properly. I’m getting proper voltages on basically everything. I still need to look up voltage ranges for z32 maf and test that

      Honestly no not at all, but it’s a very basic tune, it’s stock injectors q45 tps and z32 maf. Other than that it’s a completely stock base map. The file is from nistune and from my understanding if it was tune related I would be able to unplug maf and tps and it would still start even if it was a really shitty start. I have tried starting it with coolant temp, maf, and tps unplugged none of those 3 togethor or individually changes anything

      What does it look like with highway driving? And yes, I had a similar thought as Duncan. It looks quite similar in my Stagea and I have made myself accept it as normal. Might have to look into it some day   Highway gets as low as 10l/100km on my end so I'm not as worried about it being a mechanical issue. More likely just the tune on the haltech.
