Eric,

keep your head up..... there will be something for you when the time is right.

I hated to hear you needed to jump the Z to move it. But I guess if you are working alot then you are making good money.

Lets hope you find something great soon.

LOL I still spend it. Not on my off time, but on bills. If the bike weren't almost paid for I'd sell it. I might just sell the Z if I don't find a job that allows me time to drive it.

When I called Nissan to price out pads for OEM vs. Nismo pads they were the same.
So they had to order them in.

Like Jake said, they can't be resurfaced since I have drilled / slotted rotors.

The thing about OEM pads which Nismo is probably similar as far as dusting goes its insane how much they dust. But your wheels are black soo that's not bad lol.

How is the initial bite on the Nismo pads? Any better then OEM's?

Didn't know you could not resurface cross/drilled rotors.
