2013 G37x sedan - moonlight white & 25k miles
Finally found a low miles nearly mint sedan. Been through many 2012 & 2013’s most drove well but beat up, dents and scratches.
Car has technology and convenience package
few things planned soon:
tints
clear bra treatment
oil spray
tune up

Before I can get the car officially on the road it needs tires and brakes.
im looking at the following unless there is a better or bigger combo available at a reasonable price?
Rear rotors - CENTRIC 12042088
Front rotors - CENTRIC 12042080
add CENTRIC ceramic pads
Also noticed the parking brake light flashes on and off sometimes during hard acceleration

Welcome to the site, sounds like you need to top off your brake fluid regarding that flashing dash light. Just be sure you order the correct diameter rotors (320mm front 307mm rear) at 25k I doubt rotors would be needed unless previous driver really beat on it. Probably just a fresh set of pads and a good cleaning of your current rotors should suffice. I'd look at Stoptech Street Pads, they perform well and don't dust as much as their previous version.
And if you haven't checked your pad thickness you might just have uneven pad deposits if you're getting some vibration when braking. A good rotor scrub may improve things if you have decent pad thickness. Several cycles of running up to 60mph and hard braking (on a safe stretch of quiet road) down to 10 mph but NEVER COMING TO A FULL STOP will clean up your rotors, once you do the cycles just drive normally for 15 minutes to cool down, if you do have to stop during that cool down down keep brake use to a minimum.

Topped up brake fluid and will try tomorrow. Was hardly down, now right at max.
I will pull the wheels and have a proper look at things
car has 17 inch wheels so a BBK upgrade is probably limited anyways.
