13 inch cobra's on a 5th gen!

We'll after many month's of purchasing the parts, i have finally installed my BBK. Everything was simple, but just BS problems that occured. These brakes stop on a dime! oo man!! just a tap on the pedal and you feel the car stoping instantly. We'll worth the money and time.

much thanks to turbo95max for the help!

With the BBK, do you just need the relocation brackets from Jeff, cobra rotors, 300zx calipers, and SS brake lines, anything else???

I might be doing this in 2-weeks.

your going to need bolts for the 300zx caliper. The Bolts that you buy from the factory are going to be too long... so either you use like 9 washers or you go to lowes and find the correct length one.

Next your going to need a drill to the brackets 2mm bigger because the 5th caliper bolts are bigger then the 4th gen caliper bolt. And your going to need nuts for the 5th gen caliper bolts. Any dealership should have them.. but if your lucky orchard suppy and hardware or lowes might have it.

you're also going to need pads

Damn 2 piece rotors.... fawkn **** !!! I been waiting for mine from Matt Blehm for about 2 months now, its taking 4 ever. Do you guys know the weight of these 2 piece rotors for the Cobra ? Price is not a issue here, I have my brakes. I'm gonna go back to stock soon as these 04 Maxima rotors warp like crazy compared to my OEM rotors with Hawk pads.

A33 - nice calipers I wish I painded mine gold like the Nissan Brembo kit.

someone correct me if i'm wrong, but i think it doesn't matter if it's TT or NA they're all 4 piston calipers.
