rs73 Posted September 5, 2007 Author Share Posted September 5, 2007 Hi, orders submitted so hopefully they will all arrive by mid next week the latest (if you all didn't miss a delivery due to not being home, etc). Break squeal can also be caused by pads, not only rotors, but things get worse when rotor or pads are badly worn, so see how you go...

Simmo1985 Posted September 6, 2007 Share Posted September 6, 2007 Break squeal can also be caused by pads, not only rotors, but things get worse when rotor or pads are badly worn, so see how you go... My current rotors have sort of got circular lines running around them.. they feel bumpy when running my finger up and down. The front break pads are new Lucas's, they were put on during the RWC before I bought the car - so it may well be the pads. I will be replacing the pads if the problem does not go away after installing the rotors.

Sounds like both rotors and pad problem. If your rotor is healthy, you can have it machined nicely and flat surface. I had a problem with the old std rotors (93 gtst) which caused steering vibration and squeal, which was fixed by machining the rotors and putting new pads in.

Simmo1985 Posted September 8, 2007 Share Posted September 8, 2007 I probably could of got them machined, but figured I may as well just upgrade as I was going to eventually anyway. I'm not getting any vibration (not yet anyway), only squealing. Why do you say pad problem as well? Brake pads are less than 2 weeks old? Time will tell I guess! I'll invest in some anti-squeal stuff before replacing pads, see how that goes.

rs73 Posted September 8, 2007 Author Share Posted September 8, 2007 I didn't know the condition of pads you have right now... maybe the pad shim is worn out, or when an old pad shim is being reused it may caused all sort of noises, I was told so, as the shim is to ensure pads sits flatly against the rotor and absorb any noises or vibration. But give your rotors a machining and see how it goes... I had slight groove (not bad) on the rear one and that one was the one I had squeal on, so could be the rotors after all.

WazR32GTSt Posted September 9, 2007 Share Posted September 9, 2007 hey mate, can you get rotors for the V35 skyline? specifically V35 350GT coupe with non-brembo brake package it might be similar/the same to the 350z cheers, Warren Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/158914-rda-rotors-group-buy-2007-is-now-closed/page/17/#findComment-3336785 Share on other sites More sharing options...
rs73 Posted September 9, 2007 Author Share Posted September 9, 2007 I'll check the part number list, if you can confirm that the diameter the same with 350Z front & rear then they should be ok. Remember that the 350Z has the track version with bigger rotors and brakes (I believe) so this may be the same with V35 Premium coupe with bigger brakes too... GB19 is going on now, got 1-2 orders so far...

WazR32GTSt Posted September 10, 2007 Share Posted September 10, 2007 the v35 had a few iterations the 03-04 coupe had normal spec and a "track" spec which was not related to the premium package. the "track" spec was offered on manual models as an upgrade and included the brembe package. the rest of the entire range had the same normal-spec package the 05+ coupe no longer offered brembo but had a larger brake setup so it would be the 03-04 coupe "non-brembo" setup which is what would work i believe the equivalent in the DBA brand is: 4000 series front part# DBA 4954 (296mm x 24mm) rear part# DBA 4574 (292mm x 16mm) according to the DBA website, the part number is the same for the skyline and 350z standard/touring model 2003-2005 i'm not sure how to find out if its the same with the RDA range so i was hoping you could help Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/158914-rda-rotors-group-buy-2007-is-now-closed/page/17/#findComment-3337971 Share on other sites More sharing options...
