Hi friends, i was wondering if you can tell me what are the best brake pads for the b13 sentra. I im looking for good pads that can minimize dust and noise

If you have an SE-R, I would recommend the OEM pads. Everything else I've seen dusts rather badly.

I've heard Axxis Metal Master brake pads are very good.

The Metal Masters are excellent pads. I have them on my NX and must say I really like them. I have had differences in dusting from one car to the next though.

I have NAPA's and they are totally silent. The factory pads IMO suck because of the sqwealing (sp)--very annoying. Plus the NAPA's have a lifetime warranty; I just installed my 4th free set!

I'm quite satisfied with the stock pads on my SE-R for street use.

Hey, what would the cost be involved in converting from rear drums to discs and is it worth it?
My rear drums are rusty and look like crap beneath the spokes of my wheels. They're becoming worn anyway.

OE Nissan pads are the best all around pad available, be careful not to get the QValue pads that Nissan offers-- they suck!

Metal Masters/Axxis (same thing) are a good step up from the OE pad, however, they tend to be noisy when cold, and are dusty.

Portorfield R4S for track days, or severe street use.

Portorfield R4's for racing.

Hope this helps,
