Front Brake Pad & Rotor Kit Ceramic G-Coated Slotted X Drilled - 08-19

In this review the TRQ Front Brake Pad & Rotor Kit is evaluated for drivers needing a direct-fit OE replacement that upgrades stopping performance and appearance. The kit is aimed at owners of compatible 2008-2019 Infiniti and 2009-2019 Nissan models who want a straightforward install and improved braking without modifying calipers or hubs. The single biggest reason to buy is the combination of a ceramic pad set and performance rotors that are slotted, x-drilled and G-coated for better heat dissipation and enhanced corrosion resistance, all supplied as a complete front disc brake kit.

Key Features

• Direct Fit Replacement: Designed to match OE fit and mounting points so installation is fast and requires no machining or adapter parts.
• Ceramic Brake Pads: The included ceramic pad set delivers quieter operation and lower dust compared with many semi-metallic options.
• Performance Rotors: Slotted and x-drilled rotors improve pad bite and heat dispersion for more consistent stopping under repeated braking.
• G-Coated Finish: The rotors' G-coating helps resist surface rust and keeps the visible hat area looking cleaner behind painted calipers.
• Complete Kit: Ships with (2) front rotors, (1) front ceramic pad set, contact point grease and hardware so parts are matched and ready to install.
• Vehicle Specific Fitment: OE and aftermarket reference numbers are provided so buyers can verify compatibility before purchasing.

Who It's For

This kit is best for Infiniti and Nissan owners who want a reliable OE-style replacement with a performance-oriented rotor that still fits factory components. It suits drivers who value quieter ceramic pads and an improved rotor finish for rust resistance and appearance behind visible calipers.

It is not aimed at drivers seeking race-spec friction compounds or heavy-duty fleet duty; those requiring aggressive track-only pads or specialized rotors for extreme towing loads should consider aftermarket options tailored for those uses.

Pros & Cons

Pros

• Good stopping performance and a noticeable improvement in brake feel and consistency under normal and spirited driving.
• Easy to install as a direct OE replacement with all necessary hardware and contact grease included.
• Ceramic pads run quieter and produce less visible dust, and the G-coating improves rust resistance and appearance.

Cons

• Rust resistance feedback is mixed, so long-term exposure in harsh climates may still show some surface corrosion over time.
