The reason there is so much noise in the OEM brakes with RS29 is that the pad vibrates (between piston and pad + between the pad mounts).
In the APs or Alcons, the pad doesn't vibrate as much.
Mano > OEM brakes with RS29, too much noise.
AP brakes, I use RS14 (also RS14 on OEM brakes don't produce any noise).
Sorry to resurrect an old thread but I have the same dilemma. I am about to order RS29, SS Lines and SRF Fluid as a midway upgrade to my stock brakes. I can't justify a BBK kit yet.
Do RS29 pads squeal as bad as everyone says ? I will be doing a road trip to 'ring on june and I can't bare loud squealing for such a long journey. Some says it is quiet, some say it is ear bleeding loud. Looks like a hit or miss thing. I consider using Cera Tec lube to help things out but still undecided... Any input is appreciated.
I don't know if everyone is reading here the posts :blalalala:
RS29s on OEM /standard brakes -> SQUEAL of DEATH
RS29s on AP brakes -> do not squeal
Ha ha, I was waiting for someone to pipe up. Or squeal like a pig as it were.
As for Clubber I would try my solution (despite having an AP set up) which is just to stick the RS29s in for track and then DS2500 for road. Incidentally I do not seem to get any noise from RS29s on my AP set up :whistle:.
