which brake pads did you get? it is normal to get the squeeky sound until they are broken in. just get up to a good speed and slam on your breaks. do it a couple of times and you should be good to go.

Yeah that is basically how it works. Here it is in a little more detail:

Also, did you use anti-squeal paste and re-use the shims?

If there race pads squeeks are normal. You must bed the pads in as well. Was everything installed correctly? You may need your rotorscut if bedding them in doesnt work. Lastly the compound in the pads may cause squeeling. Enjoy having a race car, sometimes these are things you have to deal with.

No, there not racing pad. Just pad that I bought from auto stop, the pad are use for daily drive. I just hate the sound of the squeek sound when braking at stop sign and stop light. I have bled my brake, but haven't bled both the middle nipple.
