anyone have squeaking problems with nismo brake pads?

I just recently redid my brakes. Put in some new rotors and nismo pads on my non-brembo 04 brakes.

Anyone else having any problems like that and how is it fixed?

the nismo pads are of a higher heat level than OEM, just like other higher end pads they will have some squeak to them, nothing you can do to fix that other than warm them up with hard braking or replace them with a known quiter pad.

Did you install the OEM shims with the pads? Make sure you use plenty of brake lube in between the shim and the pad, and on the edges of the pads.

yea I put the shims in but no brake lube. maybe that will help it some =) i wil try that out soon.

I just found it odd because it only happens mainly to my passenger front and on occasion my driver rear a little bit.

I guess I will try brake lube and see what happens.
