I found some premium grade brake pads for G35s for $29.45. (after rebate and discount).

RockAuto.com has a sale going on for Monroe brake pads. I consider Monroe a better brand than Raybestos and Duralast. They have two types of pads, both are on sale.

The G35 03-04 OE pads are the Dynamic (semi-metallic) pads (ceramic available)
The G35 05-06 OE pads are the ceramic pads(semi-metallic available)

I have an 05, good braking power, but I want the initial bite of the 03-04 pads. So Im ordering dynamic pads in the 05-06 size.

just get HAWK pads

 

I got the pads in the mail today. IM SHOCKED!!!

These are some very high quality units!! Even the box they came in speaks high quality. After Install I will give a full review!

 

Dont order these. The are the wrong size. The rears are the correct size, but the fronts are for the 03-04 sedans. Several auto parts stores list the wrong size.

The best way to order pads for the 2005-06 rwd sedans is to ask for 2007 brake pads. The 2007 base models (non-sport) have the same brake setup as the 05-06 sedans.

 

How about I move it to the brake section so everyone can see...
