    Yep, need to take off each wheel. You doing front and back? I'm in Beaconsfield, this weekend is fine but don't you need to wait on them being sent over?

    I have a little hydrylic jack, some jack stands and all the tools you'll need, just bring over the new pads. Oh, and your wheels locknut if they have one. It's a pain when you forget them :D

    Thanks UGAME. If there is someone should be punched then they are the nissan dudes who quoted me 4 hours labour which is 450.00. There should be a limit when they are trying to rip off someone.:mad: :bash:

    Mate im finding that quote hard to believe hey. Exactly what were they quotting for.

    IF it was to also machine or replace the disks, then ur getting towards that figure, but for just pads....... it sounds like a miss-understanding on one side or the other to me man coz that price is out there

    either that or they are playing the "we're too busy so make him go away" game.

    Czp want about $35US for an ambient temp sensor. I rang Nissan Australia for the same part...$195. They must burn the money to keep warm they take so much of it.

    Giant nissan aussie park. The most funny part is the sales told me front pads are in stock. Rears can be only sourced from sydney. ETA 4 weeks only one dealer got the stock. Nobody holding the stock any more because they are for 93....Bullshit. I knew this will be outcome before calling them. I had similar experience with them when I got quote 3800 for 100k service. Thks god, TOM at PZP was happy to help me out.:)
