Replacing Stock Brakes All Around

Well this is mundane, but it is what it is.

The brake upgrade kit for the front is about 1k alone (I don't feel like spending that much). But my front and rear brake pads are down to about 2mm. So, it looks like its time. Also, the parking brake is weak.

The remedy. A brake job all around.

So here is the parts list for my 2007 NISSAN PATHFINDER 4.0L V6

Rotors (I like these Bosch quiet cast rotors. they are zinc coated to keep them looking nice without being ridiculously priced) - I don't bother with resurfacing.
BOSCH 40011118 QuietCast - Rear $42.79
BOSCH 40011066 QuietCast - Front $44.99

Pads
AKEBONO ACT1101 ProACT Ceramic Pad; Includes Hardware; With Mechanical Wear Sensor - Rear $24.89
AKEBONO ACT1094 ProACT Ceramic Pad; Includes Hardware; With Mechanical Wear Sensor - Front $49.89

Brake hoses (I don't think they have every been replaced)
AACDELCO 18J4453 Gold / Professional - Front Right $8.68
AACDELCO 18J4452 Gold / Professional - Front Left $8.68
AACDELCO 18J4455 Gold / Professional - Rear Right $7.41
AACDELCO 18J4454 Gold / Professional - Rear Left $7.41

Parking brake shoes
BOSCH BS869 S- $24.79

Parking Brake Hardware Kit
DORMAN HW17400 Rear; 189.5 mm x 27 mm 15.78

all together its about $436 shipped.
Or I could take it to the dealer and probably spend something like $2500-$3500 for them to do it...

Hi All,

Does anyone know the specifications of the gaskets used for the banjo bolts on the brake calipers? I hate spending 1-2$ for a stupid gasket when i need 8 of them and could buy a bag of 50 for the same price if i had the specifications.

Here is a link to the part that I am referencing.
