[Q45tech]

The 300zx rears are not 30mm........ about half that.

Thats a great price on pads. Where'd you buy?

[Q45tech]

$44 is a strong discount these usually run $60-$70 at retail

[lino]

Waht about the rotors? Is that a good price too? Anyone else have these on their Q?

BTW, How about some pics of your car James please.

[Q45tech]

Not saying the HPS compound is necessarily ideal compared to oem [U91-U93] just the price is good.

What is the difference between U91 and U93? What do you consider to be the best option for pads and rotors for everyday use?

Thank You

for day to day driving, the U91 or U93 are going to be best.. For one stop without heatsoaked rotors, the OEM pads are probably gonna be as goo das the hawk HPS pads. However the hawks take a lot more to start fading than the OEMs do!

These (Hawk) don't come with the front or rear abs sensor do they! I love the Akebono Pro Acts.

[Q45tech]

The ABS sensors are in the hubs........................don't you mean the pad wear sensors?

James the fronts have the wear sensor but the rears don't! Your front or rears didn't have these? I took pic's of the drivers side where the sensor wouldn't be on the front and the rear. Pad wear sensors are on the PS and hear are pics of the Akebono rear setup I have. You my friend like to push that Q to the limits on the streets of NJ.

What brand rotors do you have and how much are they? The only thing I read so far about the Akebono pads is that they are comparable to oem, except they dust less. Is this true?

Yes comparable to OEM and front and rear rotors are Stillen with Goodridge SS Brake lines.
