i just got a j30 for free- i was wondering if anyone tried a front brake swap. the calipers bolt down but the rotor hits the inner top caliper. im assuming that the rotors have to be milled down just like the 300z swap. the calipers are two piston-should be worth the hassle

 

its been done/.

 

I think this was discussed in the general maxima forum.

 

or suspension and brakes forum.....but IMO 4 pistons with 12.6" or 13" >j30....but u go tthe calipers for free and free> all

 

You need to take 2-3mm off the diameter off the rotor and it will work. Enjoy your new brakes

 

u right.. but there is nothing like swapping rims with ease at the track when you have the J30 calipers....

 

you should buy my kit. 13" rotors and brackets'

 

that would defeat my purpose of being easy to swap rims...

 

i have 17 for summer and stock 15 for winter- the j30 clears the stock

 

its easy for me...i have 300zx 16s and 17s

 

still sounds worth it to me. have you tried the napa machine shop on east second street in scotch plains ? im sure they can mill it down for you.

btw mirage is tinting me on sat at 9am...excellent hookup !

 

SHOW OFF!!! lol

 

i know.. that is what I was trying to say... if you have 17s or larger they clear the Z32 calipers... if you dont have or cant find the right rim (smaller than a 17) to clear the z32 calipers you are pretty much assed out... i would go with the 2 piston J30 calipers to get better stopping performance from the stock 4th gen and slighty lower brake performance from z32 calipers...

 

napa didnt not want to get involved so i did it my self on a drum lathe and worked perfectly----yo stop buy so i can check out the tint----are you still interested in the j30 projecter lights
