Need to replace front brake pads on my S14. Would Nissan OEM replacemnts be the best bet, or am I okay to go with aftermarket OEM replacements. I wil be upgrading to KVR pads later on down htte road when I decide which brakes I want to use, so I just need to get by for the next few months. Thanks. ---

Why not wait for someone here to sell a used OEM pair? Probably run you like $10-20 bucks for a pair, and you could use them for the time being. Just an idea. ---

Good idea, just not a big fan of used brake pads. 🙂 I will take a good set of used front rotors for an LE though. 🙂 ---

I hear you, why cut corners on your brakes, right? Fair enough! Why not go to Canadian Tire, buy some pads you’re okay with (if that’s possible haha) for the time being, then switch 'em up to KVR’s when the time comes? BTW: Nice ronnievision car list, impressive. 8) ---

I always recomend Wagner “Thermo Quiet” check it out… If yur in the Mississauga Area, check out “Platinum Auto” located at Eglington and Tomken. just mentioned that you’ve bought from them B4 and mention “no tax” they only deal with cash. They’re good people Platinum Auto’s # 905 602 9828 cheers
