Brake Pads

Hi All

 

I am new to all this and have just purchased a 300ZX NA, all seems fine apart from having noisy front brakes to over come it i am going to change the pads. Are the Turbo and NA Brake pads the same???? I phoned 3G brakes but they were not sure. Can anyone help??

    they are the same. Before you buy, remove the pads, clean everthing up - there should be 2 anti squeal shims behind each pad - one stainless and one metal covered in plastic. Liberal application of copperslip then try again, if they're still noisy then replacement might solve your problem. If you want more info let me know as I've had troubles with my na brakes over the years - so been there, done that...

     

    good luck
