On my 95 240sx the front drivers side brake is grinding when I come to a slow stop. Is this a pad problem or is the caliber sticking. all the other brakes seem fine, it passed inspection about 5 months ago.

Change your pads soon and have yoru rotors surfaced. If you continue to let it grind you'll end up damaging the caliper and will have to replace that soon. Make sure you bleed the system fully because there might be air trapped somewhere causing the caliper to apply more pressure. I'm not a mechanic so i'm just going off of personal experience.
