    I have the slotted big brake kit on my car and I was talking with the previous owner and he said the slight noise coming from the front right brake is due to the slotted roters shaving the surface of the brake pad so that it maintains contact. Is this normal? The sound is not always there...

    I've had slotted/cross drilled rotors on my GT and they were quiet. I think it boils down to pad compound. Your more aggressive pads squeal so to speak. Or it could be that the brake system was not lubricated properly when installed. Can you describe the noise?

    It sounds some what like an airconditioner leak. (cause thats what it was thought to be at first) But it has been narrowed down to the right front tire/brake area. It has seemed to go away sense the post, but I was just curious as to what it was? I will probably go with you on the brake pad compound, sounds logical.

    Thanks!
