I have had this link for sometime now and went to access it out of revived interest. http://www.bol.ucla.edu/~cchiu1/zbrakes.html Of course it doesn't work now. Does anyone know where there is another write up on upgrading 3rd gens to 300zx brakes. I'm also aware of the Wilwood upgrade but was under the impression that custom brackets were needed. Input?

 

There are 2 wilwood kits that I know of and both come with all necessary hardware...no custom rigging.(I have the precision brakes kit)

 

All you really need is a pair of 1990 300ZX front brakes and rotor!
the bracket is the same as our maximas just mill 3 - 3.10 off the diameter and figure out the brake lines and your there! I have the calipers but not the rotors yet, i"m going with the cross drilled and slotted up front and cross drilled in the back on stock brakes w/Metal master pads! See if Matt can give you some info, cause the search doenst tell you anything about this modd just a bunch of guys arguing over nothing!

 

Mill the rotors or the bracket?

 

If im correct I believe the rotors have to be milled down 3 mm!

 

yes..rotor.

 

I suppose my sense of humor was not well recieved (?). New thread title is more appropriate though. Anyway, thanks guys. I'm really just looking for the information, just For My Information. The link for the "write up" was gone as I have had it for years now. Wasn't sure if any other write up was availble, that's all. Thanks!

 

It should be at www.maximadriver.com
