Hi guys has anyone got the part number for nissan brake pads went there today for some and they told me they dont stock them no more :eek: im sure the guy got it wrong.

Get some aftermarket pads, if original calipers I used Hawk and they were a great improvement, not too expensive from what I remember

Agreed - I'm sure that Smithy stocks these as well as other aftermarket pads (see Traders section)

Twats! if you only want stock ones then speak to mike at MJP, otherwise as said Smithy for uprated ones :)

 

if not a local motor factors will do them, as long as you get some decent ones like AP they will be as good as OEM anyway!

same pads as subaru impreza so if you want dealer ones you could try subaru

if you badly want 'nissan' pads, try these nismo ones at the bottom of the page

ADN14236 - ADL Blueprint as good as OE.

 

ADN14236P - ADL Blueprint performance pad.

 

BP1016 - Dirty QH!!

 

Armed with these part numbers any good motor factor should be able to cross reference them.

 

Dont go to subaru for them as fist they cant look bits up without a chasis number!! and two they will make nissan look cheap

Regardless of the pads make, if it dosnt already have it, use a grinder and put a nice slice through the middle, they resist fade better.

at an angle or just straight? i have ebc drilled and grooved disc with mintex pads, they can take a little abuse but not for very long :headvswal

I cut a straight line in the middle of the pad away from the center/wheel bearing direction. Or, in other words a straight line over the shortest distance of the pad. A 4" angle grinder works well. Mind the dust.
