That's what I was talking about. I had a 2003 G coupe with the first generation brake pads before they modified the material for longevitiy. It stopped much better than my Nismo.

So does anyone know if all Nismo's have the upgraded sports pads, or only a certain build date have them. I understand the Nissan sport pads are better than the stock akebono pads.
