Question about brakes

Hi guys, I just got a 05 G35x yesterday, so I'm pretty much new to this forum. I just found out that I need to change the brake pad and the rotors, so I was wondering what's your guys recommendation on brake pad and rotor combo, or even BBK and is it overkill to have BBK? Thanks guys!!!

BBK or you can get the R1Concepts rotors with some nice pads. I got those for a year now and absolutely LOVE EM!! I also know 4 other G owners running them and they all agree.

If you need both pads and rotors then you would want the Stoptech Stage2 kit.

I'd go with the upgraded front/rear brakes from the later models. It should fit the awd models. I just did this conversion to my 03. Look in the brake section
