Brake Pads
Was getting oil changed at dealership today. Service adviser said I need rear pads and they would be $325. I said no thanks, I can do the pads myself. He then said with Infiniti cars you MUST turn the rotors too, you cant just change the pads. Is this a true statement?
Yes, I know, I can/will change brake pads but I absolutely refuse to change oil.

It takes about an hour per axle if you take your time and clean everything.
The condition of the rotors and the pad surface area are what matters. If you already have judder or other surface irregularities and issues - yes you should turn or replace.
I would expect to be able to install another set of the same or similar type pad and not create issues. Depending on what I see I may scuff up the rotors some but I almost never have any problems w/ new pads.

My front right rotor is starting to squeal every time it rotates, so I'm assuming it's time for new rotors and pads. My car has 122k miles on it and I'm pretty sure they've never been replaced or resurfaced or whatever. Anyways I'm looking at the KNS website and there is a pretty good deal for the stoptech slotted sport kit and i'm just wondering how good it is compared to stillen's 1-piece slotted rotors. And if the stoptech slotted sport kit is a 1 piece or 2 piece rotor. My G37s is my daily driver and I'm not planning on taking it to the track.
