Am also going for the non-res system with cat delete btw... Are you getting the ecutek as well?

Will do. Post a pic of yours with the black tips when done, interested to see how it looks! Been an expensive month for the car - first service, tax, new exhaust and had a ding recently (argument with a kerb) and the sill needs repairing and paintwork - £600 worth of damage.

Sounds like it's fairly common then - doesn't concern me as braking performance is unaffected. Don't know if the hard stop acts as a warm up or just scrubbing residue of the pads/ discs, but seems to do the trick.

Can't say I have any technical info, but mine have started doing this since about 4,000 miles (at which point the car was just under a year old). I have done a track day in it, but there is still plenty of meat on the pads. I find that if I do a hard stop the brakes will be fine for the rest of the journey, but next time I'm out the squeak will be back... Will mention it at my first service this weekend.

I see that there are a lot of familiar faces here....

Had my GT86 for a year (first service this weekend). Have been a member of the "other" forum since before ownership, but think I have space in my life for both forums so am here to check things out!
