haydar Posted January 12, 2011 Posted January 12, 2011 Hi Guys I'm struggling to find the right pads for my car. It's a 2006 Japan model 350z roadster touring (non brembo) . I've tried buying the pads from Nissan, but for some reason they keep sending the wrong size pads, the ones they send are too small!! I've attached a picture of my pads with dimensions, all help greatly appreciated. I don't mind any good make, although would prefer to avoid EBC. Thanks Quote
Neilp Posted January 12, 2011 Posted January 12, 2011 I wouldn't disregard ebc. Ive been using yellowstuff on the track and road and so far they have been great. Great value for money tbh! Quote
sss107 Posted January 12, 2011 Posted January 12, 2011 Hi mate, i've also got non-brembo and in the end I went for Project MU pads, they're pretty awesome. Better than the EBC (just my opinion though) I am really impressed with them, just as good as the Ferrodo 2500's I had on my DC5. I bought mine off JDMPERFORMANCE. They're is a few to choose from but I went for the NS one's. Just call them and they'll get you the right ones. If you don't want to spend as much, go for the PAGID pads, you'll get them same place. http://www.jdmperformance.co.uk/item.ph ... =333000359 Cheers, Martyn Quote

Are they the same as mine? Cheers Quote
haydar Posted January 12, 2011 Author Posted January 12, 2011 I wouldn't disregard ebc. Ive been using yellowstuff on the track and road and so far they have been great. Great value for money tbh! On the EBC website they quote the size of their non brembo pads as being 137mm x 53mm x 16 mm. Where do EBC measure from, the whole pad or just the braking compound? If it is the whole pad, my measurements were 140mm as apposed to 137mm, is this close enough? Thanks Quote
sss107 Posted January 12, 2011 Posted January 12, 2011 No idea about the size im afraid mate. I would just give JdmPerformance a call, they'll sort you out, helpful bunch. Cheers Quote
JDM Performance Posted January 13, 2011 Posted January 13, 2011 Happy to help, but we dont have any in stock at the moment for the JDM non-Brembo. Would be a 2 week wait from Japan Louise Quote

Those ones have been sold a long time ago (on eBay). Louise yes but it does give the OP the option to get Project Mu ones that perhaps he didn't know were made. Maybe not from you though Quote
Jed Posted January 14, 2011 Posted January 14, 2011 I bought my non brembo JDM (Front and back) from here at a good price (I thought) and were a perfect fit. Helpfull too when i contacted them! http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll? ... 0255775230 Quote
rzua5 Posted January 14, 2011 Posted January 14, 2011 I thought all the non-brembo share the same pads, if not does that means UK Z have different caliper than the JDM one?? Quote
