Default Click from Brembo calipers

I have a jdm bug sti and at very low speeds there is an audible click from the calipers when I press the brakes, Im not sure if its the pads moving about, as I also get the noise when driving a 5 or 10mph in 1st gear.

I also have some brake juddder problems, could the two be related?

Thanks

the clicking noise you are experiencing is related to the brake pads moving around inside the caliper on the pins, nothing to serious to worry about it's better them being loose than being seized and wearing only one side out.

The judder is from brake pad deposits on the braking surface, usually an really good hard few stops will remove this from the discs
