Default did rear conversion but some how the brake pad kinda stick to rotor

I took the 94 rear disk on to my 2000 civic dx.
I did bleed the brake but some how the brake still rubs while im driving.

I also get this sound like when people have bad brake and it squek while im driving without touching the brake.

does this mean i didn't bleed the brake good to the point where the brake pad is still rubbing on rotor?

you have to bleed your brakes a certain way. start with the passanger rear (bleed it), the go to the driver rear (bleed it), the go to the front passanger (bleed it), then the driver side.

make sure to use DOT 3 brake fluid...

If bleeding it doesn't work, i'd check the pins that depress and compress the caliper. AFter a while the pins lose there lubrication, especially since your rear discs coversion was used i'd go ahead and lube them up anyways.

you need to get a manual and look at the proper way to bleed brakes. you get a small see through jar with a little bit of fresh brake fluid in it, a flexible line from the bleed screw to the fluid. the purpose of this is that when you are done seeing bubbles come out of the line into the fluid, you know there is no air in that brake line.

no you can relube the piston. Try relubing the bolts that hold the caliper on the bracket that may help.

Well i change the brake pad,bleed the brakes,lube the shaft that goes to the caliper(it was hella dry) still no help.

The pad still stick but not bad to the point where i can't drive or smoke up the pads.

My cousin told me it must be my e-brake cable,but the problem that the e brake isn't even hook up to the brake handle because the teg cable its short.

So i have to get the si e brake,is there a way i could loosen the e brake when its not even hook to the brake handle?

to me is not even worth 100 bucks for a rear disk conversion no more because its giving me problem. **** should of just bolt right on bleed and ride smooth with out problems.

the rotor spin freely but every 360 turns the pad touch the rotor.

is like almost full spin all around then pad touch the rotor.

SPIN ROTOR, ALMOST FINISHING THE ROTATION THEN THE PAD TOUCH THE ROTOR.

WHAT COULD BE THE PROBLEM?

KINDA HARD FOR ME TO describe what I'm talking about.

sounds like your rotor is warped, or not sitting flush on the hub. remove the rotor and check the hub, or return the rotor or get it resurfaced. why doesnt the ebrake cable fit? did you adjust the nut on the ebrake handle? my 94 rear disc conversion with cables fit perfectly on my 96 sedan.

i did but oh well my cousin got me si e brake line for 50.
did you use the bracket too?

the dealership try to rip me off asking 50 buck per line.

I don't think my rotor is warp because if it is then suppose to shake when i stop hard but it doesn't.

when i go at 60-80mph the left side make this noise like some1 is blowing in a jug.

oh another thing that my uncle is a master mechanic and he told me it suppose to rub in the rear.
it only slightly rub when the rotor does a full spin on both side.

it should rub in the rear.. and you said it makes a noise in the left rear? maybe the wheel bearing it shot? you may not notice the vibration from the rotor..
id check the wheel bearing
as far as the cable went.. i used the brackets on the cable.. theyre attached to the cable.. the bracket on the caliper was the original integra bracket.. and the ebrake bracet on the ebrake handle is my from my civic..

other websites that i posted at they said it must be a bad caliper. I thought if i got a bad bearing it suppose to make a clicking noise.

The hub spin freely when i first play with them so i don't think its the bearing.
