Hi all!

I am curious about the similarity between the brake pads of the JDM vs. the US version. Will they or which ones will fit my car?

I own a 2000 2.5 V6 (Pictures on the way) and I plan to buy the brake pads in the US but have no idea since the part numbers don't agree...


Help, anyone?

Thanks.

Tamboo,
Let me tell you what I did to find EBC brake pads for my '98 JDM VR4. I found http://www.needforspeed.co.uk ('http://www.needforspeed.co.uk') and got the model # for EBC brake pads for my car. As it is much easier to import from the USA, I e-mailed http://www.brakesrus.com ('http://www.brakesrus.com') with the EBC model # and I was able to purchase from them at a good price.
Hope this helps.

are JDM pads better? the ones i got from raceconcepts.net seem to hold up fine, havn't lost that much brake life yet, and they stop pretty good.
