OK
I searched but I cant find this exact problem im having
I have an S13 Coupe
When ever Im in reverse and press the brakes the rear end does this load clunk sound, ONLY in reverse and ONLY when I press the brakes
It just sounds weird, and a bit scary :-/
Im thinking that it could be that I need new brakes
( need them anyway, when I stop they screech a bit)
or new rotors...
Any help is appreciated
Thanks guys

check your passenger side rear brake caliper,lose bolt from the caliper bracket or tensioner.also check the e-brake cable spring on the caliper see whats going on.

My old auto used to do that. Recently the guy who bought it off me told me the rear calipers were seizing up. He just replaced them.

Well it doesnt go " CLUNk CluNk Clunk"
it just one big loud clunk
so pretty much it something to do with the calipers..

sounds like the calipers for sure then

also, should i just replace the 240 calipers with other 240 ones or should I upgrade myself to some 300zx or some R32 calipers?

upgrade to 5 lug and do a z32 swap. opens up a lotta balla wheel options too haha

it sounds like your rear rotors are warped... just buy some new pads a rotors...
