clicking noise when I apply the brakes on my GTU

Well I go to stop my car and when i brake the front brakes seem to make a click noise. Not a constant click only a single click each time I press the brake pedal. It will also do it at low speeds. I am suspecting my brake hardware may be bad or something. Any leads as to what could cause a clicking noise? search brought up a bunch of "what is this noise" threads but nothing specifically pertaining to my problem so I posted.

Only advice I can give is to pull the wheel and check the pads for looseness. It's possible, that on initial application, the pads are moving causing the noise. TII 4 pistons, so pads are easily accessible. Check the pins and hardware to be certain they are all there and in working order.

I knwo exactly what this is. Wheel bearings. Fronts are semi-easy job, the rears will require a hydrualic press. i had to do mine about 4 weeks ago. Problem solved.
