Well done! I've been looking at several videos about replacing pads & rotors. Your procedure of doing the pads first makes so much sense! I also appreciate the clear directions with no background music. Keep doing what you're soing!
Ironically, I ordered Power Stop Z26 Rotors & Pads for my 2006 350Z and installed them today. I used your video a couple of times to ensure I was not going to run into any issues. Honestly, your video really helped make the process very easy! Now, because I live in Wisconsin, I have put my Baby to sleep for the Winter (until April 2020)...I reached out to Power Stop asking them if I can hold off doing the "Break-in period" until April but I have note hear back. I just don't want to get my car on the snow covered streets. Any way, thanks for the video!!!
Thank you! Glad I could help! Stay tuned I actually sold the 350Z and got a 370Z. I didn’t have a car to modify for a couple years, but I’m back in the car scene!
Just got done changing the pads and rotors on my 07 Z and used your video to help. Went smoothly and your video was very useful. My calipers were held on by 22mm (wow that’s big) and they were on there pretty good but no match for the breaker bar. The rotors were also seized so I tapped them from behind with a mallet while I rotated the rotor. Other that easy peasy thanks for the video
Lolllllll I feel bad! I’ve actually been very busy chasing some other goals! But as for LindZ? I actually sold her (the black Z) I was wanting to get a 370z but now nissan has teased the new generation of Z so idk what I’m gonna do now. Maybe I’ll do some videos on my dads orange Z in the meantime! Thanks for commenting though, it’s crazy people still want videos from me. And it’s even crazier that they’re still helping people out! Stay tuned!
Have you had any problems with the brakes or pads? Is it stopping smoothly with no sounds? How are you liking the upgrade to drilled ans and slotted rotors?
Luis Torres I had zero issues! I’m not gonna lie and say I had a massive improvement because in all honesty, while it is technically an upgrade from the stock brakes. The improvement is not drastic. Still worth it for the price of the kit though!
Fairlady LindZ are you supposed to receive 8 pads in total? My packet came with four rear pads and two front pads but on the video it’s seems like I should’ve got 4 front pads instead
Do you have the right rotors?? If everything is off and you’re just trying to put the new one on there isn’t really anything else it could be besides the wrong part
