Gtr reverse brake pads
Should they be loose? The back one kinda sits off the rotor at an angle instead of squarely... Not sure if it's correct or notImageUploadedByTapatalk1371409802.539428.jpgImageUploadedByTapatalk1371409821.992847.jpgfront page sits right up against the rotor... It loosens when I let go of the lever

Re: Gtr reverse brake pads
Mine do not sit at an angle like that, they are square with the caliper.

Re: Gtr reverse brake pads
Reverse hasn't been used much and when it is used it's with a tight grip. Problem is the back side of the caliper is wearing just from the pad rattling around or something, not sure why. Only the back side is doing it.

Re: Gtr reverse brake pads
Some of the Gen 2 calipers did that. Only way to stop it is putting a spring between the pads, pushing them apart. If you leave it like it is now, you'll be replacing that caliper soon. The new caliper is different, the pads ride close to the disc, but not touching.

Re: Gtr reverse brake pads
The trick is to bleed the system every now and then!To bleed it correctly(I have found)you need to remove the caliper and rotate so bleeder is at very top so EVERY bit of air can get out!Make sure to place something between pads while doing it.If you get them bleed correct the fukers will not slip Works! PS-Do not overfill Mastercylinder!That will also cause them to drag!
