by new brake kit, do you jst mean rotors and pads? If so, Many member on this board like the the OEM quality rotors by Centric on everythingg35.com. As far as pads go, I would get the Hawks replacement pads since they have less brake dust and bite pretty similar to a stock set up.


If you plan on tracking your car, you might want to look into a Big Break Kit(BBK).

I think you may be confused. I can be wrong but I think you want to upgrade your pads and rotors. A whole new kit would include calipers as well and that gets very pricey.

go to www.g35parts.com and and look for brakes for your specific model. they offer slotted and/or cross drilled rotors and you can look for pads there as well.

dont buy cheap brakes

buy a well known brake manufacturer

is there any reason you need slotted and drilled rotors?

I found some slotted EBC rotors and they have worked well for me. I think I paid $30 more for the slotted set vs and OEM
