Hey Guys,
I got a 2001 SE and I replaced the brakes and rotors recently. I got OEM nissan rotors and Hawk HPS pads.

I am not getting a smooth stop all the way to the stop. As I slow down I am getting the feeling like its grabbing then it "releases" a little then grabs again. At high speeds they are smooth as can be but then I have this problem. I am not sure what it is.

Any ideas?

Oh yeah I did the rears, rotors and pads this summer but with aftermarket rotors and cheaper pads.

Am I having a problem with the fluid or are my Rotors already warped/material transfer occured?

I use a torque wrench on my lugs if you want to know

describe your grabbing occurance again please?
Rotors are ok since no warpage.

I don't quite understand the problem, but did you clean off the rotors when you installed, and bed-in the pads?

It will take about 1000 miles to properly bed in the pads. Have you bleed them? You can try that.

Yeah I bed in the rotors and yes I use rubbing alcohol on the rotors before I installed to clean off the grease.

As for the Grabbing when I am coming to a slow stop it feels like I am pushing harder on the break then letting off then pushing again. Like its GRABBING. Get it??

Have you changed your brake fluid lately?

maximamass

No I bought the car used so I have not. I DOUBT it ever has been changed.
