I will only need 4 pads up front and i won't
have to worry about the Rears' b/c most of
the brake dust is up front?
Right now i have 1500 miles on my Roadster
Enthusiast,
Will replacing only the Front Brake Pads

There have been a few threads about them. I found them when I was interested in them as well, but it seems many don't recommend them (but you're better off reading the posts and deciding for yourself).

I dont know about the unequal thing but most of the brake dust is def. up front. I cleaned mine this morning and my entire hand was black. So i'm thinking about upgrading pads myself

Hawk HPS Pads - Pep Boys
Hawk and EBC pads are at Pep Boys..
This week I checked a Part for my Max. Saw the EBC Rotor ad.
No EBC rotor for the 350Z - But EBC Green.. Front pads. Were available.
I prefer the Hawk HPS ( High Performance Street )
I have them in front and I don't have any complaints. And I don't have to wash the dust of the wheels every day. After a week and the dust is not that bad...
I have the original stock pads in the back.. But If I have an extra $62 dollars I'll put the Hawk HPS on the rear also....
The Front HPS were a good thing - less dust and my rotors are holding up better than my buddie's G35C..
G35 owners have a rapid Pad and Rotor wear. They get free pads and rotors up to 36mo/36000 miles.. 350Z Owners say F88K this and put better Pads.. It's cheaper.
Cheers Amy
