hey sau,

love this site and appreciate everyones help alot, i recently have got my brake pads machined and replaced but for some reason when i apply sufficient force to the brakes i can hear like a screeching similair to the sound of worn pads... its only coming from the front discs im fairly sure they arent worn allready and not sure what it could be since i have recently changed all four

regards chris

EDIT: i forgot to mention the car shudders and shakes when slowing down and force is put on the brake

Edited by hks33

got new pads and discs have been machined just when im slowing down from higher speeds and putting a sort of firm amount of pressure on the brakes i hear the noise from like worn discs but i know there not worn as they have been replaced its only coming from the front 2 or 1

This has been happening to me too, I just got my brakes replaced today, it seems to be doing the same thing. If you're looking to get your rotor's machined, let me know, I'll tag along too.

not too sure what pads im not sure if its the rotors either but i need some money first to fix the problem no use trying to figure out whats wrong without looking or getting someone to look at it

u know any brake specialists who do good prices down our way michael?

Hey Chris, there are a couple of places, but my favourite that I can recommend is JaxQuickFit. They do an awesome job on my car. The nearest one is in Hoppers Crossing, about 15 minutes from you. You could probably go to Bridgestone in St Albans Rd, they do brakes and machining too. JaxQuickFit Hoppers Crossing number is 03 9974 6477, give them a buzz tomorrow and ask for Chris. Say Michael with the R34 Skyline referred you (mates rates). Ask for an inspection, it's usually free then they consult you on what's wrong and things needed to be replaced.

    • Plan on the day will be to park trackside. Depending on space availability we will try put a small shade tent and a few of the cars on top of the hill inside turn 3, this is an easy to get to parking area with views of Turn 2, Turn 3, Turn 4 and Turn 5 and limited other pieces of the view around the track. IMPORTANT NOTE! One consideration from previous years is from memory the trackside parking sells out before the admission tickets, for that reason I encourage anyone planning on coming to buy tickets for parking now via the official website; https://www.worldtimeattack.com/ The type of parking you are looking for is 2 Day Park & View (Access Around Venue) Vehicle Pass Only Please note this does not include admission to the event itself, remember to grab that also, and kids under 12 get in for free!
    • This is going to be a mid week evening cruise. Come along and join us for a drive out to Palm Beach. This is a change of event plans after talking to some of the older members of the club. SAU NSW is planning on hitting Old Pac again shortly, stay tuned for details. When: Thursday 26th of June Time: 7:30pm meet/8:00pm departure/10:00pm finish Meet: Spit West Car Park / Spit Rd Mosman NSW 2088 Destination: Palm Beach Public Parking / 16 Ocean Rd Palm Beach NSW 2108 Up to date information as always can be found on the events page of our website, the link for this event is https://www.saunsw.com.au/events/palm-beach-cruise There will be a lead and follow car so no one should get lost. If you would like to attend or bring others along please put your name down and a +1 as numbers will be needed prior! This is NOT a race and we will all be adhering to all road rules. If this is what you want please come to one of our track days. This is an official SAUNSW event and will be run under a Motorsport Australia permit. One of the things that really sets our club apart is our commitment to being true enthusiasts. When on normal roads we strive to maintain good relations with the authorities as well as the public in general. When attending one of Skylines Australia NSW events please try to: • Be aware of surrounding environment and act accordingly. • Drive courteously on the state’s roads as a true enthusiast should. • Understand how important it is to maintain the good name of SAU:NSW and thus, treat others accordingly. • Any misbehavior will not be tolerated and you will be asked to leave. Thanks guys and hope to see you there!
    • Good time for a carbon roof  
    • Not in any way aroused by any of those, except maybe the big AMGs. And that would break my never a Euro, ever, rule.
    • You got any more detailed photos of the tow ball set up?
