Dang for that much, go get a full set of pads, 2 pc rotors and stainless lines from Racing Brake. I got mine in last week and will be installing them next week.

So anyways, I guess im going to get the Hawk performance pads but can you guys tell e what brand my pads should be? I know OEM is the best option but I dont know any reliable websites to order from and if you guys have any aftermarket brand preferences, let me know thanks

Stoptech/centric too expensive and made in china. Brembo does not make rotors for our car. Dba very good but needed only if u intend to track yr car. Priject mu just ext. Expensive for no special reason.

Go with ebc rotors. Made in uk. And very reasonable price.

Hawk pads are good. But they come slightly thicker than what nissan infiniti recommends. Later could burn rubber boots. Just go with oe pads.

as a preface, i will say that on this car i have not yet installed the following parts, so cant review them yet.......

i purchased front and rear stoptech drilled rotors and matching stoptech street pads from tirerack.com for 515 dollars, which i think is an awesome price.

i used stoptech street pads on my old e9x m3 on the street and for a couple track days and really liked them, so i figured id try them again.

i think for the money this is a great setup, and i trust stoptech products. tirerack had the parts to me in two days.

i will attempt to post some pics and a mini review of the experience when i get them installed early next week.

best of luck mate.

We are a new vendor to the website, we have been in the brake business for quite some time. If you don't track the car and is only used for street and spirited driving I would go with the Centric Premiums, match those rotors with Hawk HPS or Stoptech pads and you have a great inexpensive setup. Difference between HPS and Stoptech is a minimal amount of more dust from the Stoptechs.

Now since we are new, PM us and we will give you a great price.
