300ZX Brake Upgrade
 

I'm new to the forum and was hoping you guys could help me out. I'm redoing the brakes on my 1991 Maxima and while I was at It i thought I could do the famous "300zx big brake Upgrade" but I was wondering what exactly needs to be done and purchased?

Thanks!

rotor, calipers, lines, adapter plates.

the first 3 are easy...the last one i'm not sure who else is making them now.

just a hint our brakes are the same as 4th gen ones...sooo if you find something that fits a 4th gen it will fit your car.

My friend makes Z32 brackets. I'll forward him to this thread.

Z32 brackets to fit what rotors?


Over the years I know there have been Matt's kits which I want to say used like 6th gen rotors. And also Jeff's kits which of course used the 13" Cobra rotors.

I have the Z32 + Cobra rotor setup on my car. Been running it for at least a decade now with zero issues.

or this...

12.6" rotors I believe. Hopefully he'll chime in.

Hi. I make a little adjusted copy of Matt's brackets.

They are used with 12.6" rotor from 6th gen Maxima and 30mm calipers

These will work on the 3rd gens? Just curious what are the cost on a set of these brackets?

As far as I was told, 3rd gen knuckle is the same as 4th gen. If that is true - these should work.

Doing the liquidation on last 3 sets I have, they are offered for 159 shipped with bolts and nuts for proper installation or 139 without them. 10.9 grade hardware for bolts and nuts, washers are 8.8 grade.
I have to check what colors I still have, should be black and red. They are aluminum anodized brackets.
