BRAKES ffs!

Did you bed the pads in correctly? Are the anti-SQEAL shims behind the pads?

i got a new set of pad put into but i am sic of goin bak to the place get them changed.. but on the way home they started to squeel kinda again and not happy :D i was told to bed them u have to get to like to 80 then break fairly hard... and for th anti-SQEAL shims i couldn't tell ya sry..

heres some instructions for ya, and remember, DO NOT come to a complete stop... you can stuff your pads, probably the reason why you had to go back 3 times.

BEDDING IN INSTRUCTIONS

1. Install disc pads and check fit.

2. Pump brake pedal until pedal is hard.

3. Perform 2 stops from 50Kph to 20Kph with medium pedal effort.

4. Perform 6 stops from 110Kph to 70Kph with high pedal effort.

5. Drive vehicle for 10-15 minutes at 70 to 100Kph without using the brakes to allow them to cool

6. Park vehicle and allow brakes to cool to ambient temperature.

DO NOT STOP VEHICLE WHEN PADS ARE HOT DURING BEDDING.

THIS WILL SEPARATE THE PAD FORM THE BACKING PLATE

Bedding should not be performed until disc rotor has been bedded.

The disc pads will smoke and smell whilst bedding.

    • Hi everyone, I've been wrestling with this for a while now and have been trying to find out the cause. For context, the turbos used are Garrett 2860 -5s, the BOV is a BNR32 HKS SSQV IV kit, the car is currently tuned to ~470 whp on 17.5 psi. The car drives normally, pulls well when it doesn't happen, and I can replicate it fairly easily. It does not sound like turbo shuffle or flutter. The engine has only a thousand or so miles and has had this behavior since it was completed. After my engine was built for my R32 GTR, I noticed that the car now sometimes makes an air discharge sound on what appears to be positive boost pressure that sounds really similar to a BOV. I had thought that it was a BOV issue but even when replacing it with a brand new unit, the sound persisted. It seems like it's coming from the passenger side but I may be mistaken. The closest scenario I could find was this post here https://www.gtr.co.uk/threads/maybe-a-boost-leak-opinions.147955/https://www.gtr.co.uk/threads/maybe-a-boost-leak-opinions.147955/ started by @yakshii and it sounds very similar. As in, at partial throttle once I reach positive boost I begin to hear the same psh psh psh psh psh sound like air is leaking somewhere when I keep the throttle in the same position. It most commonly happens in 4th gear at around 3-3.5k RPM and 5th gear around 2.5-3k RPM, which seems to coincide with normal positive boost thresholds. It might be similar to what @Austrian GTR mentioned about his own HKS SSQV. Notable difference would be that when he applies more throttle when it happens, it stops. In my scenario if I apply more throttle during this repeated psh psh psh sound, the cadence of the sound gets faster and louder rather than stopping. If I lift off slightly and apply throttle again, it will normally stop and pull without issue. I've checked all rubber couplers to ensure that they are tight, but have not gotten the opportunity to properly do a pressurized boost leak test. If anyone has had similar experiences or thoughts on what might be the cause, I'd be very keen to hear them. I also have a video of it happening from inside the cabin, if that would make it easier to understand: https://youtu.be/2zqZXcx8jbA
    • I'd want at least $40K for mine, but thats easy to say cos I'm not selling anyway.
    • That's incorrect. We have 4 seasons, consisting of pre winter, winter, post winter and a small glimpse of hope! 
    • I spotted a black C34 in Mittagong this morning!
