Just something to consider.

For street use as daily pads, I don't think these would be a good option. Personally, I'd go with a lesser grade pad for the street. You will also likely run into a lot of squealing because the pads will not likely reach their operating temperatures. This also affects the brakes performance.

Steve ... Very good point. Will do some more research since there are a variety of pads available here.
Thanks .. Bill
I have looked in the projectnissan.com... they do not have a specific project mu b-force pad for G35 coupe with brembos. I assume that 350z and g35 brembos are the same. so does that mean i will need [Project Mu Brake Pad B-Force 350Z 03+ Front (Brembo)], and [Project Mu Brake Pad B-Force Skyline GT-R R32 Spec V 89-95, R33/R34 95-02 & 350Z Brembo 03+ Rear]. which the total comes out as $180.20 from projectnissan.com are there cheaper sites? Am I getting the right pad for my 6mt G35 coupe?

Also, I checked around and they were cheapest. Since I live here in CA, sales tax is 8.25% so it was better for me to order it from outside and pay for shipping.

All I can say is its still the best pad I used so far.
Well, it has been 3 days since I finished installing the P-Mu B Force pads and Rotora rotors.. After bedding and what not, I have noticed that the braking power/ bite has increased steadily as time goes on. Already I can say that it is equal to if not better than stock. ssk0771, did you notice this as well or was yours better out of the box?
AND NO DUST!!! My car looks as clean as when I waxed it after the install the other day!!!
No squeeking either, which is a god send because the stock brakes were driving me nuts.
Thanks to ssk0771 for his suggestions and input.

I just got my set of rear and front project mu pads b-force.(non-brembo). I am getting ready to install them, but I noticed that on the rear pads, only one of them has a sensor.
Does anybody know if this is how they're suppsoed to be? My fronts have all the sensors.
