Replacement Break pads and rotors OEM...

Where can I get a good deal on replacement pads and rotors for my 2004 6MT with Brembos. I dont want slotted or drilled or ceramic I want original equipment replacements. But I sure dont want to go to the dealer. I have looked and looked. I got a price of $300 from one site but that seams low for four rotors and four sets of pads. Or should I jump on it? For that price they are probably stolen. So what I am asking for are links to sights that sell oem brembos for my G. Thanks for your help.

I wouldn't get OEM pads... you can get better ones for cheaper. Personally, I like Project MU and I'm sure many others will agree, as that's how I came to the original conclusion to getting them(researching other peoples responses on here).

As far as rotors, I don't have any recommendation... but if some shop is selling you a full set of pads and rotors for $300 for our Brembos, something is real fishy about that deal.

I bought mine here:

Front Pads:
http://www.projectnissan.com/shoppin...&idproduct=772

Rear Pads:
http://www.projectnissan.com/shoppin...&idproduct=773

At the time, they were one of the only people that actually had them in stock and their prices were really good. I would recommend them as a seller based on my experience.

They're better than OEM pads because they put out about 1/3 of the amount of dust, and the dust is a lighter color so it doesn't look as bad on the rims as the dark black dust that the OEM Brembos create mass volumes of. They also bite really well in normal street driving conditions, don't squeak at all(compared to the OEM Brembos which squeak like crazy, particularly in reverse), and seem to have good longevity thus far. Most people burn through their OEM Brembo pads at somewhere between 15 to 35K miles.

+1 for InjectedPerformance. Just ordered a full set not long ago. Arrived at my door in 2 days. Price was the best I found.
