Ok guys so i was told that the G35 would need some new rotors and pads in the rear. Pads are glazed rotors are rusted. Stealer dealer wants $500. i did my research found a bunch of DIY's and am gonna attempt this myself. I found a good set of rotors and pads. StopTech Stage 2. Comes with Rotors (i got slotted) pads and stainless steel braided lines. The package was $615. shipping would have made it about $75 more so close to $700. I found a guy who was selling a set that was sent to him, the wrong set for his G so he wanted to sell them. He sold them for $525 picked up in long island. The rotors look good and instead of getting AXXIS Ultimate pads i got HAWK HPS brake pads which are supposed to be really good ceramic pads that bite well and dust less. I lack any of the box instructions (guessing there were none). I know its going to be a lot of work for first time so I plan on taking my time. Now one front and one rear rotor have a groove in part of the outside of the rotor. do you think this is to tell sides or just machined out for balancing purposes? Are any of you familiar with these rotors. Any tips or advice before i embark on this endeavor? I know not to get brake fluid on paint and stuff. is it difficult to change lines? i have no instructions for that either. I was just gonna try to wing it and see!
