Truenotch Posted September 30, 2017 Share Posted September 30, 2017 Looks like you're having some fun in this thing! What brake pads do you run and how to they fell? The reason I ask is that they're really squeaky and in my experience that usually points to the compound being too hard. In my car, it made a huge difference going to a softer compound. Now they work from cold and it's much easier to modulate the pedal and avoid lockups. Plus they don't squeak anymore. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hey , Thanks , been having a blast in it lately. All the small little developments and mods are coming together That squeak is really annoying ! Its only on the rears and the brakes work really nicely, good from cold and no lock ups but are just really noisy. I started with Wilwood PolyMatrix E which is what I run up front but have gone to a softer wilwood pad like you did, a BP-20 (which I was using for that last hillclimb), my next one to try is a BP-10 which is softer again. I've also tried the anti vibration shims and new discs with no luck... On 10/1/2017 at 12:16, 63Ragtop said: go go go! haha, I had a massive grin by the end of that video, nice work man. Cheers Bro !
