Brakes/Rotors

Hello,

A few questions for you guys on brakes/rotors... for an 03 coupe without brembo.

I recently purchased brakes/rotors from the dealer i got somewhat of a discount because i know someone that works there.... I purchased 2 front and 2 rear rotors + front and rear pads.

I saw on the website, "everythingG35.com" that there are some aftermarket ones for less than half the price I paid.

My questions:

1. Has anyone purchased of "everythingg35.com" before?

2. I know aftermarket is not as great as factory but will it still do the job or do you guys not recommend it completely?

3. I live in Toronto, Ontario, anyone know of any other places to get factory/aftermarket brakes/rotors?

Thank you

Sometimes aftermarket is better than factory.

Check out Racing Brake. They have rotors, and pads, as well as BBKs. Reasonable prices, quality parts, and great customer service.

Upgrade the factory pads to Hawk HPS, they are very quiet, very low dust, and they grip very well.

i have used them and no problems here. i also bought the stock rotors and pads through http://www.infinitipartsusa.com/choose.html they sell all facory parts and paid less than half of what the ealer quoted me. but like someone else said, some aftermarket parts are actually far better then OEM ones.

Better in some rarer conditions worse in the average typical every day normal cold [meaning first stop up to 200F] panic stopping.

Unfortunately carbon dust is a sign of good cold braking
