So i had replaced my stock pads with the hawk pads and cross drilled rotors 55000km ago on my 2005 fx45 , now i have a metallic grinding noise from the drivers side wheel, the inside pad is almost down to metal, but the outside is about 40% and the passenger side inside and outside pads are at 40%. is the calliper not retracting back into it hole? is that why the drivers inside is worn out? If i need to replace the calliper im going to do both. next question is,..... i cant find any callipers any where but the dealer?
Does any other vehicle work on the fx series like the q45? or the g35? something must bolt up? any suggestions or constructive comments would be appreciated. thanks in advance.:rolleyes::mad::sad::ever:
 
ok thanks anyone done a 350z brembo conversion yet? do u think that the cailper is siezed? i am getting frustrated in finding parts for these vehicles i mean they been around for 7 years and the aftermarket still hasnt catched up? whats up with that? i gonna swap the awd under my mustang? hahah at least there parts for my stang. brutal, the aftremarket needs to step up cause they losing out on alot of money....i love my car but i think its time to get me a fx50, or 2nd gen 35.there seames to be more of a market for the 35.:rofl::tears::.smile:
 
The FX50 front caliper and rotor can be fitted directly to the first gen FX35. It is just bolt-on conversion (front only). The rear ones need to get some other special parts made.

Or you can go with aftermarket BBK.
 
are they better the fx50 ones and how much they cost ? thanks
