After converting my S13 to a 5 lug I ordered new pads and rotors. The (Rears) Pads are Project U D1 spec and rotors are StopTech slotted. After driving for 5 miles I noticed brake pad smell but I said what the hell that's normal. Took the car to a empty parking lot to try out the Ebrake stopping power and WOAH did I felt much more locking power. But here's my problem after parking in my driveway I still noticed the smell again so I went to go check it out to see my Passnger rear brake were HOT ass hell, I had just sprayed caliper paint the morning before so the paint was bubbling up. Which was weird it was only the passenger rear doing this. Rear Calipers are almost new, I replaced them 4 months ago and have only put around 1000 miles on them since. How normal is this? Or was it because of the ebrake pulls that caused this? Thanks
