Thread: Nx2k conversion, what pads?

on my 98 sentra se, I have a set of nx2k calipers, ss lines, and slotted rotors (forget what brand) ready to go on the car, but what pads should I use?

On my 96 ser I have nx2k calipers, cheap rotors, stock rubber lines, and monroe ceramic pads, they are ok, but have some brake fade after a lot of fast braking

What are some good off the shelf pads that I can get locally? preferably with low dust, I drive mostly highway (1200 miles a week)

I usualy run Hawk pads , carbotech .

Hawk HPS (HB213F.626, 1991 Eagle Talon) from Tirerack. Note: You may have to enlarge the notches on the backing plate to get them to slip into the clips. Not a big deal...just make sure you have a dremel handy.

Don't forget to flush the fluid with high temp stuff. I like ATE Super Blue.

Make sure you bed the pads in properly...it makes a difference.

I like the super blue too. They make a gold color too that is exactly the same but it makes it easier to flush the fluid as you know when you have gotten all the old fluid out.

Also Saturn sl2's use the same pad to search for and x's 2 on the super blue fluid

I'm using Axxiss ultimates and they work fantastic.

I need some new pads too, I'm thinking carbotec tho...

What hank said about Hawk HPS pads.

I love them, great pads and a world of a difference when they are burnished properly!!!

You bed them in by going to 60-10, 50-10, 40-10, 30-10, 20-10, right? I think that's what I have read somewhere before.

Whats the best place to get the super blue at? And the hawk hps pads?
