    Brake pads

    Just to double check;
    pads are the same as Z32 300zx Front AND Rear???
    or just front???
    also a good suggestion for a place to get the pads changed?

    Front is for sure as I have them installed.

    rear is according to this http://www.gtrcanada.com/straightsix...GTStparts.html (put it in your favorites)

    as for where to get them done. do it in your driveway. or at work, or in an underground parking lot....

    once the wheel is off you can do it with a set of pliers. possibly by hand if you have bionic fingers for the sliders. I pushed the pistons in by hand, but if you can't, a C-clamp and a peice of wood will do just as well

    the only bolts are on the wheels. Make sure you pay attention to how everything looks before you pull it apart!

    easiest pads to change ever, and I've changed my fair share of pads as a mechanic.
