I would love to think you're right but I took the Toyota sticker off over a week ago and it's still squeaking.

BTW Brobbins, I tried 3 60-0 runs last night and there was no more squeaking after that. Hopefully it is permanent and doesn't come back next time I drive the car.

Your going to have to do that on occasion to deglaze the rotors. No big whoop. Glad it worked.

High performance brakes tend to squeal. Here's what I did, installed some track biased brakes for, well, tracking and drove with them on the street for a little while. Once you spend a couple weeks with race car level squeaking, the stock brake sounds are a non issue. I run Pagid pads on the street now, and they do squeak a little, but like I've said, its barely enough to notice.

Stop driving the car like a skirt and blast up the highway and brake LATE and brake HARD!

squeeks are a result of 'stop and go' traffic and overall driving like a wussy.

Camaro does the exact same with its brembos.

Maybe i'll try a few of these suggestions.
