Trying to figure out why my rear driver brake is braking unevenly. You can see in the pics the black area is where my pads aren't contacting and the cleaner area is where it's grabbing with no brakes applied. When driving I hear no noises. Under braking I can hear it going squeak squeak so it's definitely only grabbing one part of the rotor and I'm not sure why. Caliper pins are perfect condition and lubed up moving completely freely but once the caliper is on it feels bent or something
The backside of the pads have little nubs on them that have to be located properly inside the + on the face of the piston. If they arent seated in the grooves it will make the pad sit unevenly. I made this mistake the first time I changed the rear pads.

Do I have to go to work tomorrow🤔🤔 View attachment 68102
Well that was an easy install, hot side charge pipe sounds so much better you actually get the whistle of the turbo instead of rushing air!

DV+ feels fantastic and the difference is pretty noticeable especially that 1-2 shift...

Bad news is swapping fluid didn't help with my first gear synchro issue😭 I guess I'll be saving up for a tranny and maybe building this one when it goes...
