I don't know, I'll use the factory ones for a while. I'll have to look into them. Befor I put them on I am going to debur them. Some of the edges are alittle sharp.

It would be best to change all of them but you could get away with just doing the front.

I say call them, a set of 4 (front and back) for an MSP or P5 run 195.00. I wouldn't think yours would be more.

OH I just got it, I thought you ment 4 wheel drive~~ 4wdisk. You could do just front, but for the price I would do all four.

Yes, you wouldn't want to through of the balance of the brakes.

And kickass on the 4x4! I bet that can be fun.

Just thought I would show off the rotors. It's not that I think there all that, it's because Free rotors are all that I love free stuff. Now I know how PHANTOM feels.

Anyone come up and say you installed them backwards? I had that happen to me when I installed my Brembo slots on my Maxima. That's why I keep that sheet in my car...

edit: I might get me a set for my P5 if I keep it.

hughes412: Nice! Do you have lowering springs?

I'm trying to figure out what rims/size I'm going to get for my '03, but I can't change the springs to lower it.

Your car looks great!

You know I thought of that (which one goes where) but I looked on the box and they're marked L/R. I looked at the box and put them on occordingly. The right side is still the passanger side right?!!

Yes I have the Eibach 1.8 drop springs. With the sterio system it's about a 2 in drop in the back. And man does it handle great. The wheels are 17s, I think 7 1/2 wide, I can't remimber. But if you Auto crossing I would go with a light weight 15in wheel.

Oh and I forgot to say that the wheel hop is really bad with the 17s. I almost never had that with the 15. Now I can't launch with out it. That sucks.
