Supplier for JDM OEM pads?

[jim]

Any suggestions? I just want a set of bog standard JDM pads and not sure where to source them.

Nissan X-Trail pads fit the standard JDM brakes Jim. Go to any motor factors and get them to check the part numbers on the fairlady vs the X-trail, and they will match.

 

Alternatively, i have a set of front Endless VN pads for the JDM, that didnt do many miles before i replaced the whole lot... which you can have for a tenner plus p&p...

I think that applies to the post 2005 models only. The earlier models have 137mm pads, not 159mm which are on the X-Trail.

That looks like a good deal from brakeparts superstore. Does anybody know anything about them? Will the pads be of reasonable quality?

 

I've seen a few suppliers on eBay, but again I'm not sure about buying such important items from there, unless I have some sort of recommendation. Maybe I'm a bit paranoid about brakes, though.

I had them on my 03 JDM zed... No idea about the mm of them though.

Have bought from them and eBay before... As long as you buy from a UK supplier you should get decent pattern parts (Apec, BremTech, Mintex) the same as a motor factor would supply.
