NISMO brake-pads a good buy, or not? I read where the base/sport pads absolutely die if you use them AT ALL.

/\ IC, you mentioned pads, the stock sport package pads are fine for dd on the street, very quiet, low dust etc. Won't hold up for sh!t on track, and if you were to do some "spirited" street driving, ie. tail of the dragon type stuff, If it were me, I'd swap them out.
That said, I run carbotech xp8's (see sig), they're good for the track and so far (5K miles or so), jsut fine on the street, they dust alot, but have actually been fairly squeak free, a bit of surprise as I was expecting worse.
I haven't run the Nismo's but those that have report significantly more dusting over the stockers and they are NOT up to handliing the rigors of an HPDE day. However, I would imagine that they'd do okay for some "spirited" street driving.
