Just wanted to verify with some of you guys. I found some brembo blanks and hawk pads. Found it all on amazon for about $155 shipped. Is that a really good deal and are these the right part numbers?

Hawk Performance HB268F.665 HPS Brake Pad

http://www.amazon.com/Hawk-Performan...6438412&sr=1-1

 

Looks like a great price to me, but I haven't bought brakes recently.

 

pads look ok, wow, brembo's went down in price!!! i paid double that price plus ship like 6 months ago. http://www.autopartswarehouse.com/sk...n+%26+Steering

 

whts so good about these hawk pads?

 

well, for one thing they're a good combo for the rears. Gamble, you sure those pads are for the front? i've heard they are only good on the rears. i have akibono ultimate premium's for the front, but that setup is on my rears. better check.

 

I have no idea, that is why I posted. lol
If someone can confirm the front part numbers so I can order that would be appreciated!!!

 

Those are front pads. Mine have almost 54,000 miles and they're still in good shape.

 

I was going to say I would assume the HB268F.665 meant front otherwise that is a stupid way to label everything. I'll be ordering these tomorrow.
I have the hawk pads all around and slotted rotors on my gsx. Stops a 3500lb car no problem.

 

Im having a blank moment here but whats a gsx ?

 

DSM, eclipse gsx (AWD turbo)


Aren't brembo blanks still just cheap chinese steel? I bought some centric rotors off amazon for around $18 ea iirc.

 

An Eclipse gsx weighs 3500 pounds ?!

 

That is what I'm trying to figure out also. Either way they may be worth it, since autozone rotors are $32 each.

Give or take a little. It's a heavy car. I think it weighed in at 3300lbs but can't remember if I was in it or not. It was a few years back and I had a few amps and other crap. I'll have to weigh it again this year I took some stuff off.

 

AWD vehicles usually are kinda heavy. They make up for that in traction though.

 

damn amazon is weird. they said both would fit your 1997 maxima but not my 99 i30. WTF

 

no, brembo's are'nt cheap chinese steel. there are fakes, the real ones come in brembo box with brembo stamped on them. check this out...http://forums.redflagdeals.com/fyi-h...rotors-900832/
