How many miles did you get out of your sport brakes?
 

i have touring/w/sort 19 inch i noticed yesterday slowing down from 130(on a track >.>) that there is a good vibration from the car my tires are ok about 2k till bad shape should i go by the dealer and see if they can be shaved if my rotor is warped or what would be a gook 1k brake set i want good ones they have saved me many times from stupid drivers thanks! :tiphat:

im also experiencing the same problem. while braking my car vibrates and screeches sometimes. im guessing its uneven wear on the rotor. can't decide whether to just get new rotors/pads or go get it resurfaced. im at 17500 miles btw. how many miles are you at?

24563 iv had a few amazingly hard stops due to people cutting me off and stoping so iv wondered if iv warped em ii just wanna know what the wisest move would be and yes mine squeek everynow and then at stoplights

I had my rotors/pads/fluid/lines upgraded at 30k and my pads still looked brand new. The rotors looked fine as well.

Just make sure that if you are doing something (on a track) that you don't heat up the rotors, then let them cool down too quickly. (Park the car in the rain) That's what will cause it to warp. If you feel this, go take it back out to heat them up then let them cool naturally, should help and prevent a $XXX dealer bill or replacement cost. :ugh2:

im at 34k on my stock pads and rotors. im just now getting a vibration. new brake pads are already waiting in the garage. ill turn the rotors and install those pads this weekend.

The difference here could only come from yours being Nismo pads which I'm assuming are going to be different from base model pads? :confused:

nope stock sport pads. i dont run the car toooo hard but its my DD. im surprised mine have lasted this long.

I figured so as well. I thought pads were one of those things you inspected every 25k and probably replaced. When they swapped mine at 30k to Posiquiets, my stockers still looked brand new. :eek:

yea i looked at em at 20k miles. they looked fine. about half worn so i left em. now had i been autocrossing the car or really ragging on it im sure they would have been toast long ago.

hahha

i got my front rotors turned today for 130 both were warped

Discs don't really warp, they just get build ups on them. You take away their effectiveness when you start shaving them down. Get some quality pads and scrub them in properly, that should cure it.

Turned for $130? Auto parts stores here will do them for like $15/rotor, sometimes less in cash off the books :).

oh this turn thing was till i save up some real money for good brakes sloted probly

lol sounds like i got riped by nissan o well i got paper work now

Oh, and while I agree with the general sentiment that pad deposits are often mistaken as "warping", real warping can happen (and it doesn't take a whole lot of real warping to make it impractical/unsafe to resurface on a lathe).

Oh, I wasn't following closely. If it was $130 for them to do the labor to take the rotors off the car *and* turn them, that's a little more reasonable. I was talking about taking them to a parts store with them already off the car.

o well live and learn right?

oh no they did both the front rotors i love my dealer so i was about to be po'ed

Go ask the track guys for a set of ready to throw out aggressive track pads, bed them in and use it for a few days. Remove them and re-bed in the oem brakes, most of the vibration should go away. When you finally need rotors, get some blanks and cryo treat them, now that's a real budget mod that no one ever knows about.

oh the vibration is gone i had them turn the rotors now just saveing up for some same or better brakes trust me the current ones have saved me from being hit 3 or 4 times

did you purchase new upgraded rotors with upgraded pads or reuse the oem back?

nope still stock sport package with touring 19"

Ok...

I'm still getting the brake issue (vibrating) after resurfacing the oem rotors at 1000km.

Still waiting from one of the members with stoptech rotors feedback, if it resolve the brakes problem.

i'm over 110,000kms, and still on the stock sport brakes, mostly hwy...

It's your pads depositing layers onto your rotor, you need to get new pads and bed them in properly and call it a day

Yes, i'm using project mu pad with oem rotors.

Still getting the same issue with the previous oem pad too.

After resurfacing the rotors and changing to new pads, no issue.

But after few thousands km, the problem returns.

Thinking of changing new rotors, either dba or stoptech.

Any comments

Yes, read up about brake mythology :)

Stop-tech themselves have a number of interesting articles Technical White Papers - especially read the one about Warping, but I'd avise reading them all.

Also: Centric Whitepaper on "Warped" discs

And some decent correlating info here: Technical

Bed them in right!

:ugh2:
:tup: well im the type who has to go all the way so i will be buy all new rotors when i can afford
