Honestly, I can live with it but it's still a bit annoying. I've taken my Nismo to the stealership and they said there is plenty of pad left on all four sides and that it's a byproduct of high performance brakes.
Believe or not, I'm actually inclined to agree. I've heard GT-R, IS F, CTS-V, et. al., owners complain about the squeakiness of their Brembos so it can't be an isolated problem. But just to be sure, I wanted to ask you all, do your factory Brembos squeak despite having a lot of pad left?

Stock pads should not squeak. You could lube the backing plates. Mine do not squeak unless I run race pads that get unbedded or they are on the metal warning tab. This is with 80,000 miles of experience on them, including a bunch of track days.
I've never had any of the pads on my Z squeek either. OEM non-brembo, OEM brembo, Autozone Generic or Endless.
It could be dust buildup - do you hit the pads and caliper with the hose when washing your car?
