Brake pads Raybestos or OEM Nissan
I was using Raybestos ST43s and they had phenomenal friction.
Replaced my front and rear brakes about a year ago with Raybestos (ceramic) and have been happy with it. Stopping power has been great. Didn't realize how bad my brakes were until I put these new ones in.
You got this. Just did the brakes on my wagon myself for the first time and it was breeze. Rock auto had a really good deal on raybestos brakes when I did mine. Worked amazing
I’ve had Powerstop Z36 Impression: just average
Hawk LTS. Impression: very good
Raybestos Element 3. Impression: similar to OEM
Now I run Raybestos “Truck & Medium Duty” front & rear. They’re very good: low dust, low noise, good performance & pedal feel.
I always recommend the Raybestos Element3 EHT pads and rotors. We use them at work and have very little comebacks. Low noise, low dust, great pedal feel.
I usually get aftermarket Raybestos pads if/when available.
i have an 80zx with an sbc swap, i’ve rebuilt all 4 brakes, replaced a master, swapped coiled did bushings replaced u joints
I have Raybestos AT's(96087) on my front, and Hawk HPS HB418F.646 pads. Don't think Hawk makes the HPS pads anymore though. I'm at about 2.5 years on mine, got 4 years out of the last set, after putting up with the OEM's for 4.5 years. Still on the factory rear drums.
Far better than OEM.
Cracks in front brake pads, approx 15k & 2 years on them. Raybestos Element3 Hybrid Tech.
The stock breaks on these cars were only just good enough when new, after years of wear and tear the breaks are awful. One slightly aggressive stop and that's it your breaks are done for the rest of the day.
