Noisy Brembo's

[steven22]

I have an R33 GTR with the factory Brembo brakes but I have noticed that the calipers are really noisy, yeah thats right not the pads but the calipers.

For example: If I am reversing into a park and I drive forward to straighten up and then reverse back, the calipers will make a loud clamping/clunking noise when I sto to change into reverse.

Example 2: If say I am driving down a round and then change lanes and turn into a turning lane, I will of course apply the brakes to slow down, in this instance the clamping/clunking noise has a delay from the time when I applied the brakes.

I would also like to make mention that I have never felt the abs working and onthe odd occasion have done some serious braking. The light on the dash is not on but is there a way to test the abs without having to slam on the brakes at speed? In case they dont work I dont want flat spots.

Does any one know what is going in with my brakes?

Thanks in advance.

I'd say at a guess there's something loose under there or maybe someone has fitted slightly undersize pads to the calipers, allowing them to rotate slightly when you change direction. Whatever it is, stop sitting on-line & guessing as to what it might be, get it checked out by someone who knows what they're on about.

Might not necessarily be the brakes. Perhaps a dud bush is allowing a suspension arm to move around as the braking forces act on it? Loose kingpin?
