#27440, "desperate need for advice: New brake pads too thick, CAN'T FIT"




          

Okay guys, the new brake pads are about twice as thick as my old pads and can't fit!

I called pepboys to see if they gave me the right part and they said that yes, based on the part numbers, they should work. The pads can seat inside the bracket, but when I swing the caliper down, the caliper won't fit since the pads are too thick.

Do you think I should push the piston back down more with the C-clamp?

New Car:
2004 350z base, Nismo CAI, pioneer avic-n1 (dvd, cd, navi)



Old Car:
1998 GS with hrc stage 2, HID 6000k conversion kit, AEM UEGO wideband, sfmu, ml, prokits, Greddy warning gauges: egt, boost gauge, and oil pressure, apexi tt, haydans tranny cooler, costum dp, groundwires, dynotune fp gauge. gst muff, turbo spoiler
Boostin since Aug 03.

nothing like driving with the windows down and the music low: i love hearing the turbo spool, swwwhhhttt!!!!
