INSPECTION AFTER REMOVAL Brake Pad

- Check the following item, and then replace the brake pad together with the disc rotor and replace the brake pads of all wheels as a set. [However, the brake pads can be separately replaced only when a certified tec nician checks for scratches and cracks and judges that the brake disc rotors are reusable. (For the disc rotor, two sets of brake pad at a maximum.) Refer to Inspection and Adjustment and Inspection (GT-R certified NISSAN dealer).

- Check the brake pad for streaks, cracks or fractures.
- Check the disc rotor contact surface of brake pad for whitening (carbonizing) because it is remarkably burned.
- Peeling paint on the contact surface of piston and brake pad.

- Check that the anti-corrosion paint (silver color) of disc rotor is eliminated.
  ■ CAUTION ■
  If the anti-corrosion paint (silver color) remains on the surface of brake pad, polish it with sandpaper until completely eliminated.
