Dude at autozone read that wrong. 510s are not for the rear, they are for Sentras with rear discs.

Not sure which caliper I have.

Well I tried the 510s anyway and they definitely didn't fit. lol I'm done with AutoZone their employees seem to lack common sense.

I just ordered 509s from Advance just to see if they fit as that's the only one left I haven't actually tried to put on the car.

while you had the caliper in your hand, the "model" is stamped into it

LOL @ buying anything from Autozone for our cars that is specific. Just stick to coolant and oil. 60 percent of the time, even if you say "SENTRA SE-R" and/or "IT'S THE 2.0 LITER NOT THE 1.6 LITER" they will give you the wrong parts.

It's even more fun trying to get the pads for a NX2000, they don't even know what the car is sometimes.

Glad we sorted that out, apparently the catalog that I was looking at had it wrong too. The raybestos online catalog shows the correct info and I have edited my original post.

Yeah I have no idea, the weird thing is though the MKD509s the guy brought out at AutoZone were nothing like the MKD509s I just put on the car.

Oh well. lol

Is there any reason I'd have to bleed my brakes after doing pads?

Test drove it and I am getting inconsistent brake pressure through the pedal, stopping power feels weak than somewhat decent but never really strong and even full braking I can't lock the wheels up.
