Getting ready to change my rotors & pads, anything I should know?! (G37x coupe)

Like the title says I'm getting ready to do my front brakes. Installing new rotors and pads on a G37x coupe. Just wanted to know if there's anything special I need to know about or is it like any other brake job I've done lol When I changed my sister's brakes it had a stupid "brake wear" sensor I had to worry about on her VW. Possibly does anyone have a link for replacing the front pads and rotors just in case? Thanks ahead of time!

Should be your typical floating caliper brake job, if the G has been on the original brake fluid for a couple years or more I'd do a complete fluid flush. I've had good results w/ Valvoline Dot 4 full synthetic. Also when bleeding the brakes (if you do a full brake flush) do the following sequence~
passenger rear, driver front, driver rear then lastly passenger front.

Also CRC caliper grease is your friend, apply on all moving metal on metal contact points



Here's the FSM for brakes if you want to give it a look

Thanks Blnewt! I see you're always replying to people's threads and helping them out so I was getting ready to just inbox ya but i posted this up instead because i thought that would be weird lol appreciate everything though man. I might just do the flush. When I took the car in last to infiniti they recommended it was almost time for it.
