Detailed Description

Dynamic Friction’s DFC 4000 HybriDynamic Brake Pads are engineered around a hybrid friction compound that balances everyday drivability with dependable stopping performance. For drivers searching for front brake pads for 1987-1990 Nissan Sentra, front brake pads for 1987-1989 Nissan Pulsar NX, or front brake pads for 1990-1994 Suzuki Swift, this pad set matches the listed applications and dimensions. It also fits 1986 Nissan Sentra front applications from 1/86 and 1989 Suzuki Swift rear disc applications as specified in the fitment data.

Part number 4000-0357-00 is a direct reference for this DFC 4000 HybriDynamic Brake Pads application. The pad design uses an integrally molded friction material attachment and is prepared for a mechanical wear sensor, while the sensor itself is not included. This makes the pad set a clean replacement choice when servicing brake systems that call for controlled noise, reduced dust, and stable pedal response.

What It Helps Address

• Squealing or noisy brake operation during normal driving
• Excess brake dust buildup on wheels
• Uneven or inconsistent pedal feel
• Worn front brake pads on listed Nissan Sentra, Nissan Pulsar NX, and Suzuki Swift models
• Routine brake service needs for daily-driven vehicles

Installation Notes and Tips

Verify rotor condition, caliper operation, and pad fitment before installation. These pads are prepared for a mechanical wear sensor, but no pad wear sensor is included, and mounting hardware is not included. Confirm the vehicle’s brake configuration against the listed fitment before ordering, especially for 1986 Nissan Sentra front applications from 1/86 and 1989 Suzuki Swift rear disc applications.

For best results, clean the caliper bracket and pad contact points, inspect the brake fluid level, and bed the pads in according to the vehicle manufacturer’s brake service procedure after installation.

Quality Assurance

The DFC 4000 HybriDynamic line is positioned by Dynamic Friction as a value-focused brake pad family that emphasizes consistent response, low dust, and low noise for everyday use. Part number 4000-0357-00 is specified for the applications listed here, helping ensure the correct front brake pad selection for the supported Nissan Sentra, Nissan Pulsar NX, and Suzuki Swift vehicles.
