i got a '94 srs last month and noticed the brakes rattle after slowing down from a high speed.

does it sound like a warped rotor? or what?

Thats the problem with the brakes on our cars, they are way too small to handle all that weight. So they warp and crack and the best way to fix the problem is to upgrade to a higher quality brake set-up. Im going to do the cobra swap myself.

Or learn how to brake. Its not good to come to a fast stop, a gradual stop is better for the brakes since the pads are pressing as hard against the rotors generating excessive heat.

But ya may wanna check the ball joints too. They can cause the same effect as a warped rotor. Oh- and the strut rod bushings. Those are the guys in teh lower control arm that are also attached to the rod that goes at a 45 into the front frame (k-member).
