All,

I need some help if you don't mind. I am about to put new wheels on my Z, but I don't want to have them covered in brake dust by the end of the week...so I am think of replacing the brakes.

My questions are:

1. What is a good yet inexpensive brake pad.
2. For less dust, should I go with ceramic or carbon-metallic?
3. Should I get my rotors turned?


FINALLY...

I was thinking of replacing the rotors with cross-drilled rotors, but can't seem to find some inexpensive ones that will fit - I don't race my Z so I don't want to spend an arm and a leg on rotors.



ANY help would be greatly appreciated!


BTW - I love this board, this has be the best site on the net. I have learned so much about my car that I never would have known had it not been for this board. THANK YOU TO ALL OF YOU WHO POST AND HELP OUT ON A DAY TO DAY BASIS!!!!!


Happy Holidays to all

 

Hawk hps pads from tirerack.com, good price and almost no brake dust

 

anyone ever heard of EBC...I found some rotors on TireRack.com and was wondering if they are crappy or ok. Again...I don't need anything for the Track, I just don't want the stock look (or the stock dust for that matter)

Thanks TTsupra94 for the reply, it's appreciated.

1. Hawk
2. I have ceramic and after days of drivning can see no discernable dust.
3. Yes. You will have some grooves from the original pads - this can cause brake squeal if you don't rotate them.

I thought THIS DEAL was good since you get stalinless lines and pads as well.

 

LanceG33,

Thanks for the link, that has to be the best deal I have seen yet.


Thanks Again!
