Hi,

 

I also never use cheap brake and dun really trust these product to stop my car.

 

Either OEM from Japan or Genuine ....

 

For some car models or manufacturers, there is also the difference between Genuine parts and OEM parts.

 

I would consider getting the parts from stockists or genuine parts suppliers.

Hi Fuelsaver,

 

Your Airwave brake pad original only $50? or OEM NISSIN ?

 

Price will be different if you purchase direct from Stockist , Spare Parts shop or direct deal with Workshop.

 

 

 

 

Mine OEM from Korera abt $30/pair. Just as good as original.

 

Buy in SG n bring to JB ws to install. Using for a few years already. No problem. [thumbsup]

 

Most Original n OEM similar. Now original also got from China so just make sure u check country of origin when u buy.

As for Akebono, is already available in Singapore recently.

 

Was told that this brand was the No.1 brand in Singapore about 20years back. But due to huge increase in the pricing, no dealer wanna sell in the market. Now is back we shall benefit from it.

 

 

My friend Mit Lancer CS3 just change his brake pad. He brought Genuine and realise that it was produced by Akebono. [lipsrsealed]

Hi Guys,

 

Any more reviews for Akebono brake pads?

 

My current ride using Nibk and Vetto. Braking quite spongy. Average. Must depress brake quite deep.

 

I am thinking of Akebono, project mu, bendix or brembo brake pads.

 

Anyone on these pads? Pls give review. Tks

Akebono, project mu, bendix and brembo are very good brand.

 

From what I know is Akebono are the manufacturer for many brand of car maker. Price are quite reasonable and made in Japan.

 

You can check out the rest.

OK tks. What I am looking at is good braking ability and bite. Suitable for daily use

 

Not those performance pads.

Braking need to depress deep could be due to other reasons.

Brake pads going botak soon could be one of the reason.

Brake fluid getting low is another.
