Guys I have a problem with this very topic
I bought a st185 widebody gt4
It has the st205 brake conversion
Upon driving the car everything is fine
Until:
You use the brake pedal hard after you release
I'm left with a grinding noise ( the type you hear with worn discs and pads)
To resolve the matter quickly I have to stop the car and violently
Turn the steering left and right and resume driving
And the noise goes away ...
Observations I noticed upon inspecting that
The pad does not properly cover the surface area on the disc
Meaning the part of the brake pad closest to the centre of the wheel
Is miss aligned and is hanging about 2mm over the disc surface area
Leaving the pad in contact with the inner part of the disc
When driving the car normally it's fine until hard pressure is applied
Any ideas ? Did someone previously do something wrong ?
The discs are more or less new with slight surface rust
Ant the pads are meaty and newish plenty of meat
Any ideas ... ?
I might have to reverse engineer what was done to check to see if it was
Converted correctly if anyone has the procedures
To fit these correctly could they post it here
I have used the search function
And seems to be info on it- some say bolt on some say
Machine shop has to reduce rotor size etc etc
What is the procedure ?
Thanks guys
