Another side note (and a question):

I pulled the 355mm StopTech BBK off my new NISMO and re-installed the stock Brembos. The banjo used with the StopTechs did not properly seal with the Brembos. I am under the impression it is the incorrect length, so I ordered 4 OE banjos with 8 copper washers for about 40 bucks.

Quick question guys. After this brake install, I have noticed (only after the car has been sitting for a little) that when I take off I hear a "click" noise. Also sometimes when I come to a stop.

If you listen to this video at :07.. that is the same noise. Any ideas on what it could be?

Are you running OEM rotors?

Letting the car sit for a few days will sometimes allow for the pad to embed itself into the rotor which can only be fixed by actually refinishing the rotor

Normally for me since I am running the StopTech slotted rotors after about 15 mins the pads will wear down the extra grime on the rotor and those weird noises go away

That makes sense. Yeah they're OEM brembo rotors. May just have to get new rotors soon.
