Problems

Fairly straight forward, if you have the correct tools. If you can change rotors on a car, you shouldn't have too much trouble. Fit and finish is excellent, no custom hats needed like with other brake kits.

Tips

If you need assistance, Don Nimi at PDM Racing is readily available.

Thoughts

As far as performance goes the stopping power is excellent! If you don't have ABS, beware of lock up. With or without ABS, definately invest in some good tires to take full advantage of the performance. The pedal feel is awesome (very responsive), a definate must for any performance enthusiast. If your on a budget, don't run your car on the track too often and/or perhaps after the stealth look, go with the basic kit. With the NISSAN logo on the caliper those unfamilier with the 240SX will never know! If your after more performance (track use) or perhaps show, go with the cross-drilled or better yet the sloted rotors for all out performance. I went with the basic kit and really for daily driving/with the occasional track day they're perfect, but after seeing the cross-drilled I have already placed an order to upgrade! Powdercoating with Custom colors is also available at additional cost.

Other

I strongly recommend the PDM Racing brake lines in all for corners! Ask Don at PDM Racing for his recommended brake fluid.
