Recommended Posts

Hey guys, just wanted to know if anyone could recommend some good brake specialists around the metro VIC area... I am in the SE suburbs but would probably drive up to Darwin to get my brakes to stop squealing so bad! A cop almost wanted to defect me for them today! load of Cr*p! SOOO I promised him I would see a brake specialist as soon as possible... so I am being a good boy!

Thaanks!

racebrakes are in north melbourne, 2 seconds from the city

they should be able to help you out

the squeak is from the compound of the pads you are using

try different pads, bed them in, fry em and away you go

Try Lucas brake pads better than ultimates can take like 600 + degrees and does not squeel and good on your rotors, i use them on my skyline silent as no problems, only down side is allot of brake dust but i dont care about brake dust only squeeling matters for me and i clean my mags when i clean car so who cares, also you should try the maintenance part of the forum under brakes and suspension and search it up lots of threads about it buddy

http://www.skylinesaustralia.com/forums/Br...gs-t169972.html read this thread all about brake pads and if they squeel i payed like 100 + for my pads i spend more to get good quality dont use cheap ferodos
