R34 Gtr Vspec 2 Brembos + Brake Pads = Ugly Screech

[Phantom Snail]

Hi guys,

my vspec 2 has project mu type HC plus pads working in conjunction with the factory brembos and rotors.

From this, i get a very very annoying loud screech when braking .. its just embarassing ...

They are carbon metal (Asbestos free) construction and designed for sports and street driving .... is there any reason as to why the heck they screech so badly? Is it because the pads are too harsh?

Does screeching occur with aftermarket brake pads? Im considering replacing the pads to whatever else that some1 can recommend that wont screech but isnt standard ... perhaps endless cc-a? Or would i just get the same problem?

Or should i just change the rotors to something like slotted dba? Or will there still be screeching?

Im just basically looking for the cheapest option to get rid of this embarassing screech ...

Appreciate the help guys

Cheers

These pads will do this man. They are race spec designed so they can operate at high temperatures and prolonged use. If you were to take your car on a track for a half hour and cane the shit out of the brakes, you'll notice that they won't fade and the squeal will settle down.

If the squealing annoys you too much, go back to conventional pads.

ive had other race spec pads previously on my s15, and i had no issues with squeeling at all ... however i notice with most brembo equipped cars like r34 gtr, evos etc, they tend to squeek ... but mine is just beyond annoying lol

anyone have/heard of non-stock pads on the brembo equipped gtr with stock rotors and no/minimal squeeling?

Try bedding them in,get some real heat in the pads, it helped with mine for a while

I dont think its a Brembo thing. Its more a 4pot/6pot problem.

Theres about 1 million threads on SAU about people trying to eliminate squeaky brakes in Skylines.
