I recently noticed a squeeking noise coming from my front left wheel (r34 gtr) when driving, it's pretty obvious when driving slow that it happens at a certain point of the rotation so you can hear squeek, squeek, squeek. I know this is a really bad description but I'm no mechanic.

A friend mentioned it could be a wheel bearing, what do you guys think??? How can I confirm whether it is the bearing or not? Are there instructions or DIY on how to change your wheel bearings???

more like brake pads, brake pads rubbing against disc, brake pad's wear indicator rubbing on disk..

Wheel bearings don't squeek, them hum or make grinding noises, and DIY, you will need a press which I highly doubt you have, but no it's not bearings. especially for a R34GT-R its quite new. My 1989 S13 still had the original bearings and made no noises

I have your answer! Its a pebble stuck behind your brake disc and the backing plate. If not, it could be stuck in the edges (little vent holes) of the disc.

Try flushing with a hose on its own. If not, get a screwdriver and flex the back plate a little. The pebble might drop on its own. If not, hose while bending the back plate slightly.
