if the pads r gone it will grind also if your caliper is seized and u have no pads it will do the same......
when was the last time u changed them?
the 240sx rear pads are a bitch to change so make sure u do it once and get good ones not like the autozone pad which last for 1/2-1 yr</td></tr></table><span id='postcolor'>
yup, I'd say it's definately the rear pads, but on the S14 they are really easy to change, might as well get some decent ones any way though, it will save you from doing it again soon, especially if you drive like me. Buy the shims if they are not all in perfect reusable condition and apply plenty of anti-squeel blue stuff to the back side of the pad to eliminate noises. The rear pads turn in rather than compress, I was able to simply turn them in with a vise grip, just be careful not to rip the protective but...bam your done
