Even if you change the rotors along with the pads, you only need new friction disks, which can't be more than 1K and say another 600-800 for pads.

I can see them being 3K with labor and retail on everything, but the DIY'er should be able to get it done for less.

Definitely not 4k though!

Hmmm, GT-R.... Anyone want to buy my G?

I plan on putting a 1000 miles a month, but that wont happen. I have 31,000 on my Z and I have owned it since May 2005, but we will see.

I might seriously consider buying the motor since you're local (somewhat)

It's a strong motor, as the compression/leakdown tests can verify. No sleeved = way to go

Put a 76 or something on the STS. It can be done!
