Re: Ummm, this ain't right?

Damn, I just put new pads on last year. That sucks.

Are there seals or such on the caliper where it could leak or is there something I can't see?

Re: Ummm, this ain't right?

theres seals behind the inner pads, its the thing you pushed back into the caliper when you changed them. It can leak around them. If its leaking you can either rebuild it or buy some more and use those as cores. Or you can do what I'm doing and go big brake upgrade with new big rotors and sir calipers

Re: Ummm, this ain't right?

I'v aquired some 11.1" rotors (prelude) that I'm going to redrill then use SiR calipers (same as accord wagon... even has the same honda part number), have to use lx hubs and redo the bracket a little. Have to run atleast a 15" rim with that setup. Also going to upgrade to 11" booster and 1" master cylinder.

There is another upgrade that is like 10" thats bolt on, no modifying, I'll find the link if your intested.

AEM makes a big break upgrade but its expensive ($600 I think). Baer makes a badass big brake upgrade, but its up in the thousands.

90's tegs u can use to upgrade. the rotors are a bit bigger, not by a huge amount but they are bigger.

shaguar, sure ur calipers arent seized?? my driver side is and it shakes like a bitch when i brake at high speeds. low speeds its fine tho. i'm upgrading to a complete front to back integra breaking system on my car however. should be fun!

Re: Ummm, this ain't right?

I think a wheel bearing would cause that wouldnt it.
I know on the old beater i had it did that and i put a new wheel bearing in and it stopped..Tell me what you all think..That would be my suggestion..dont really know tough..later

Re: Ummm, this ain't right?

whenever u put new rotors on, u put new pads on. that way everything wears even.

rushb18: yeah u'r right in a sense. if the rotors get warped enough and left like that for a while they can kill u'r wheel bearings.

so definitely sumthin to check if u've had the prob for a while. w/ the wheel lifted off the ground, grip the top and bottom, while it's still bolted on, and try shaking it in and out. if it wobbles, then the wheel bearings need replaced too.

I agree with rush it sounds like a wheel bearing to me
