Va Beach / Hampton Roads G owners?
Munky--I thought there were problems with the Brembos, so Nissan stopped using them? Something about wearing out faster than regular pads.
TNC- I think the problem with the brembos was replacements. the dealer wanted 500 ea. for rotors and people were complaining about that and the brake dust plus the fact that they were not covered under warranty
Well I googled it, and it lead me back to this site. Apparently, what you said was right. However, another member said he just replaced the pads with a different brand, and he was fine. Is that a quick, easy fix for the Brembo problem?
And how much does a used set usually run? I'd really love to have the G37 Akebonos, but that's out of my budget right now, and I don't have any added power, so I don't need to stop that much more faster.

People cried that they brakes make to much noise for a high end car, and the fact the dealerships were raping people on brake maintenance. Nissan keep using Brembo's on the end of the 350Z.

I can do your brakes if you buy the parts before hand. If your Transmission is an 6MT, I can do that too.
If it's a auto, I would go to the nearest Nissan Dealership.

Cool man, its a 6mt, can you do a flush or is it just a fluid change? K, I will let ya know on the brakes. I am also looking at doing the brake lines and new brake fluid as well.

Almost certain on the color i am going to paint the car, but would like some input on any blue colors that you know of that look amazing. Thanks.
Snakes i know your pain i almost did it last year coming back from the commisioning. Luckily just got the maf wet and it dried. Atleast you have a brand new engine. Time to boost again.

Make sure you get Nissan MT oil or something with that meets API GL-4 spec.
Yea.
Sounds good, I have plenty of free time, unemployed. But money flow is the problem with getting the brakes right now. I will let ya know when. Thanks again. I am in Va Beach just about every weekend.
