okay, i just put in all new rotors (brembo blanks) and axxiss metal master pads, my left front brake sqeeks a bit, even when i'm not on the brakes...i installed a new shim kit...the front shims seemed too big for the pads but i used them anyway...could this be the problem? also the clips that hold the pads wouldnt work, so i used the old ones...this is all on a 96 240sx btw...i also did new suspension, kyb agx shocks, prokit springs...i couldnt use the rubber covers on the bottom of the springs cause my old ones were shot....anyway, the car sits nice and low now, real tight...only problem is my floor jack's too big now...hehe....ast

i should mention that the brake squeeks harder when i'm into a right turn, and less in a left turn...

sounds like the hardware they sent you with the pad was wrong....

I would check that out and get the correct stuff and go from there.-chet

dude my jack just barley fits in the front, and to start off i have to use like a screw driver to get it up a bit, instead of that pipe thing, haha.
