GMballistic Posted May 5, 2015 Share Posted May 5, 2015 Depends how bad they were before and did you replace like for like. E.g: standard discs for standard discs & standard pads for standard pads. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GMballistic Posted May 5, 2015 Share Posted May 5, 2015 thay were bad enough & yes replaced standard for standard If it's like for like then it's unlikely you will feel a big change although if they were that bad then you should feel some difference I'd have thought. Have you done a brake bed in procedure? Guide here: http://www.350z-uk.com/index.php?showtopic=18649 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
a2orry Posted May 5, 2015 Share Posted May 5, 2015 Your old brakes wher obviously working fine the garage have replaced them probably because the pads wearing thin and excessive corrosion on the discs . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
docwra Posted May 6, 2015 Share Posted May 6, 2015 Your old brakes wher obviously working fine the garage have replaced them probably because the pads wearing thin and excessive corrosion on the discs . This would be my thought, Ive only ever noticed a "difference" when going from standard to £300+ pads, and even then its not much Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
