Welcome to the forums. I too also have the Brembo setup. I just finished doing my brakes last week and went with Axxis Deluxe pads. Talk to Jason@Riverside (he's a member on the site). So far he gave me the best price on OEM pads shipped. They also carry aftermarket pads as well.

wow they seem pretty darn cheap!
Axxis ULT street pads pads (formerly called Axxis Ultimate) use a Kevlar® and ceramic formula for enhanced performance. They produce maximum friction when cold, yet have tremendous fade resistance up to 932 °F. The coefficient of friction is high enough to produce a noticeable reduction in pedal effort. Fine for autocross or your first track event, assuming street tires and a low horsepower car. This is Zeckhausen Racing's favorite high performance street pad.
F-$39
R-$53
unlike these from Z1motorsport
Hawk HPS Front Pads 350z/G35 (Brembo) $125.00
Hawk HPS Rear Brake Pads 350z/G35 (Brembo) $88.00
maybe the hawk's are better quality??? i dont know a thing about brakes...
thanks for the weclome btw!

www.raceshopper.com is a GREAT source for brake pads on the Net (I think one of the largest). You can get your pads from there. I highly recommend them.

i have non-brembos and i recently switched just the front pads to hawk hps with my stock rotors. omg, what a difference! smoother braking, no more lurching or that biting feeling.. and hardly any brake dust on my rims. i think i'll have to get new rotors on the next brake pad change. any recommendations on rotors?
