According to GTO3.com the front and rear pads are the same shape. Without me taking my rears apart, can someone confirm this please. Mine is a GTO3, not sure if it makes a difference.

Similar shape but the fronts are thicker so don't think they will fit.

The rears fit the front but not the otherway around . Or was it the fronts fit the rears ?
Anyway they are not the same

Andy,

I've just looked at the ones I still have here. The side profile is 15mm thick top to bottom and the "tread" is 11mm thick. I'm pretty sure these are the rears, but could be wrong.

I thought the box that the fronts came in was bigger than the box the rears came in.

All Nobles have used the same disc/caliper combo since about the 15th car as far as I know, so your GTO3 will certainly be the same as the latest M400 (and I think the "new" cars albeit with a floating caliper assembly)

Whats happening then???

They are the wrong pads.
The correct pads are CP600D(46)(50)(55)
The ones that I am about to send back to Washy are CP5070D54.
