I got these from my buddy in Japan but they squeal bad for a daily and the wife is NOT tracking the I35. If you have a set of new or decent shape used pads and would like to trade lmk. These would be great for an actual track car. Thanks

You can see the Blue tops in this pic


I can take some pics later but they are on her car now. She drives .49 miles to work so they NEVER get warm.

 

so, you want to trade these straight up? rear pads as well, or just the fronts?

when you say squeal, please explain?

Might be going with a boosterless master, and some decent pads will help the track bitch out immensely.

 

Sorry, just fronts. And yes, I know these pads are a shit load of cash but they are used and all i need is set of pads that the wife can daily safely. they squeal just like race brakes do when you pull a race car off a trailer when the brakes haven't warmed up etc. It doesn't help that she is running a larger rotor too so the heat dissipation is even greater. They will grip awesome when at full speed etc but if the car is moving 20mph or slower or you are trying to ease up to a light they squeek bad. the stopping power does NOT change etc etc, they just make a tn of noise.

 

sounds fine, let me check the pads on mine, make sure they're an acceptable thickness/life, and I'll hit you up.

 

I have had a few offers from people all come in at once. I have to check the wifes' pads as they are on teh 300ZX calipers with 13" Mustang rotors so if you are familiar with that you know that sometimes there is a little lip that hangs over. Once I check to confirm that this has not caused any pronblems, I will trade with 1st come 1st served. Thank you

 

these gone yet? sorry for my delay, but i smoke herb and forgot about it... going to the garage now to smoke more, and check pad life, if i remember to....

 

NO, they are still on the wifes car but I want to get them off the car this coming weekend already. I just need a set of OEM pads etc. I am afraid that these coming off the car may have a little ridge from the slight over hang the 13" cobra rotor set up has???

 

Well, i checked my pads, they seem to be A/M OEM style, not sure of brand. pad thickness is prob around 75%, even wear on the rotors.

If the pads have a small lip, i can hit that with a dremel/sanding stone to lay it flat, if it's something you're down for, i can go ahead and pull the brakes off my shell, and ship the pads to you, then you can just ship yours back whenever, no rush on my end, as the S14 doesn't have a motor yet...

Just let me know cap'n, be nice after "knowing" you all these years to do a business transaction with ya, I think you're about the only one on here i haven't sold parts to, or bought parts from LOL.
