I just installed some DBA rotors and DTC 70 pads and when I did some hard brakes from 60ish I was getting sparking but only from the left front... I wouldn't have been worried if it was both front but for some reason it was only the left front. The pads were definitely inserted correctly, does anybody have any ideas as to why it would only come from one wheel and not the other?

Try swapping the pads from left to right and see if the sparking moves with the pads.

My DTC-60 and -70 have always sparked when I bed them. Usually it's at night after I finish an install and am bedding before a track event; I can only imagine what a bystander would think.

As to why it isn't happening on both sides, I'm not sure. Is it possible it's happening and you can't see it because you're on the wrong side of the car?

It isn’t just because I’m on the wrong side and can’t see, it was pitch black outside on the left side they were easily visible above the hood but I saw nothing on the right . I’m going to try to swap the pads over and see what happens.

The "pitch black" piece helps. I'm not really sure why that would happen then. Best of luck.
