Just some random information on the stock pads: Motor Fan Illustrated, a very nice Japanese car magazine, had an indepth article comparing the Z33 and Z34. One of the items discussed where the brakes. According to the magazine the stock pads on the Z34 in Europe are of a more aggressive compound then those used in Japan and here in the US. So we get the less dusty, cruising oriented pads, Europe gets the dusty but more
Racy pads. I might have to buy a set of pads in Europe next time I go there to try this out...
