I need new rear pads.

So after buying my used G35, it turns out my rear pads have very little life(apparently my fronts are fine as per infiniti) left so I need to buy new ones. What do you all suggest? Since the fronts are OEM, should i stick to oem or can i buy Nismo or maybe Project Mu NS Street pads. Which of these 3 produce less dust? Am I correct in saying that the 350z with brembo pads use the same pads as my 04 G35?

My local nissan dealer wants to charge me $76 for the rear brembos.
The project Nu pads are $72 plus shipping online(ebay)
and the nismo are about $100 plus shipping online(ebay)

Any places or sponsors on here that sell them at a cheap price?

P.S. No Hawk Pads. I use to have them on my 350z and i didn't like the feel despite producing less dust.

Your problem is if they dust less they will have less initial bite. So you have to trade off one way or the other.

Not true, it all depends on it's compounds. I have Project MUs on my car and the bite is a lot harder than the OEMs were.

To the OP, I bought my pads from www.mynismo.com

I wouldn't mix pad compounds front to rear. Just get a set of OEM's from mynismo.com, and then replace all four together when the fronts are done.
