Need some advice on Brakes..
Hey I have a 03 G35 with Brembo's.. It is time to change pads and rotors. What is everyone here replacing with, and where did you get?
I don't need top of the line stuff as im not a track person. Just a good replacement of the OEM stuff..
Thanx

stoptech stage II has been tried-and-true, you can search it up and you can for yourself.
personally, i've changed the rotors to cryogenic powerslots and hawk hp+ pads. but hp+s are not recommended for "normal" drivers.... they dust like crazy and are noisy. i do really like my rotors. extremely durable on track and they look good (if you stare at them lol)

This is the kit you are talking about
http://www.gmpperformance.com/index....ail&PID=159516
This would be a DIY. How is changing the brake lines from rubber to steel, and replacing the fluid? Does it make a real diffrence?
Or should I just get the rotors and some Hawk HP+ pads...

honestly, i couldnt feel a difference btw. factory setup vs. the SS lines. but i did them because my non-brembo z needs all the help it needs. i also changed to dot 4 synthetic (elf frelub 650).
if you are rollin on bling 19s and dont want noisy/dusty pads.. DO NOT get the HP+s. HP+ pads are one of those trackable-street pads and they work great when it's hot as hell.
HPS would be more streetable and almost no dusting.
i highly recommend powerslots based on my personal experience/usage.
oh and you can find that stage ii kit a lot cheaper elsewhere.... like performance nissan, etc.
