I was told by the lawyers today that I have been awarded $2500 in the lawsuit against Infiniti for the brake defect lawsuit! The scumbag lawers brought a Class Action against Infiniti for the 2003-2004 G35 brake defect. The California Judge decided against the Class Action, but did award the plaintifs, which include me, $2500 in damages for owning a defective auto! He he he

 

badass. how did you get in on that one?

 

heard it...

 

Too bad it's not for defective paint

 

The scumbag lawers trolling for work posted here on G35Driver last year...or the year before. It was a very long time ago. I volunteered my Infiniti reciets for new rotors every 30K miles and pads every 15K miles. I was one of a handfull of plaintifs, representing the class. The class action was thrown out, but the individual plaintifs were awarded $2500 each.

 

Good Job!

 

So what do I do.... Big Brake Kit? New wheels? SC?

 

Wheels

 

SC for sure... or wait for another lawsuit to get a TT

 

I vote Wheels!

 

I'm leaning pretty heavy on a front BBK upgrade. The 2003 brakes are pretty good for stopping, but I am getting pretty tired of replacing the rotors every 30K miles.

 

BBK

I want new brakes now, with my new wheels, but I'm broke.

 

Hey Cato, congratulations! I am very happy for you.

I would highly recommend a big brake kit. Your car already has some great mods for handling.

Better brakes will help you in many ways: 1- From a purely safety standpoint, they will pay themselves off with avoiding even one accident. 2- They will give you a lot more confidence when driving in a "spirited" way. The assurance of knowing you can stop quickly when you need to is an amazingly comforting thing. I wouldn't dare drive the way I do without the bigger Z32 brakes which are on my car now.

Bigger or better brakes brakes are usually the first mod I recommend to everyone because of its impact of increased safety.

Happy spending!

P.S. Make sure to use stainless steel lines and while you're at it, use a slightly better brake fluid.

 

John,

Yeah, I hear you. The SS brake lines are included in most of the BBK I have looked at so far. Stillen adds Motul Brake fluid with their set. I just need to figure out which BBKs will fit my stock 17" wheels.

 

Well,

When are we going to see cato again? I have not seen you in quite some time.

Are you wanting to make sure you car is quicker than mine? LOL. j/k
