I was checking prices for brakes from autozone and the guy said the brakes are not the same. I thought they would be so I am asking you guys. I don't trust most of the auto store workers in philly, they are really incompetent

Yes they are the same, I just put new brakes on my 98 I30 and guess were I bought them? Nissan.. Infiniti always charges about 15% more for the same damn part.

Charge more...

How else would Infiniti charge more? I guess we have an Infinity in plain clothes, w/o few upgrades.

I know about the price mark up. Nissan wanted $66 for the front and $55 for the rear while infiniti wanted $82/$66. Whenever I shop for parts either at the junk yard or auto stores, i always ask for maxima parts for fear of the markup. Thanks, now I know what to get.
