brake pads

[92nsxballer]

I was wondering if anyone knows where I can get the directions on how to change my brake pads. I am a newbie with the NSX so any help would be great. I also was wondering if there were any recommendations on which pads are best for the NSX. Thanks for any help.

It's covered in this thread with links to each job.

As for pads I recommend Cobalt . They don't squeel, have great initial bite and are good to quite high temps - the best of all worlds. Be sure you break them in properly no matter what pad you choose!

Dan's Garage is an excellent resource

Unless you're tracking, the OEM pads are hard to beat with the other advantage of low dusting - especially if you have trick wheels & don't really need any more than the OEMs which are already excellent.
