Noise coming from both my back wheels, It may be the pads rubbing against rotors but is there anything else I should be checking? Ball joints? oh ya, I have HICAS installed. ---

make sure your rear brakes sliders arn’t seized. My old coupe had that and i didn’t notice until i heard weird clicking noise and it was the bare pad rubbing on the rotor. Had to get new everything practically back there… ---

push back ur calipers to see if the seized, and check your wheel bearing, that can also cause a noise. ---

Just found out im going to need new brake calipers, I want some good aftermarket ones nothing JDM and not like Brembo. But something in the middle, looking to pay 60-100 a caliper. Any Ideas? ---

But something in the middle, looking to pay 60-100 a caliper. Any Ideas? either JDM replacements, a set of usdm ones in good condition (check the bleeders before you buy them). 300zx brakes are possible, but it’ll be tough to get them with a working e-brake for $200. why do you say no JDM calipers? ---

haha, you don’t actually call japan and say “hey japan, what up? i need some calipers” you go to or call an importer (quite a few in the GTA) and see if they have some or when they can get some. you can also make a want to buy post in the classified section or just PM varun, he seems to be able to get anything JDM. his screen name on here is “slipperysilvia” good luck.
