HUGE rotors on MAX ???
I know this subject has been over and over, but need some advise...Will 300zx 30mm calipers work with huge 340mm, 1.25" thick rotors. I have done a lot of research and you guys sell brackets, 13" rotos and so on. I got all that. I camed across huge rotos, 340mm & 32mm thick. They are two piece rotors. Just wondered if they will fit. Please advise...

Won't work. ESPECIALLY if they have a nissan offset. Please don't try to mix and match stuff if you don't know what you are doing. Just use my bracket/rings, Automax's rotors/pads/lines and either the 1pc or 2pc COBRA rotors. You will be fine.

BBK on MAX 340mm / 32mm
see, that is what I wanted to hear "they don`t sweep the entire..." I was affraid of that. I know this is pointless to put 13" or bigger rotors on slmost stock maxima, but I want to do it. I`m in the process of getting 340mm rotors, which are a bit bigger that 13". I`m sick of replacing my rotors evey year so I want to put bigger ones so they will stay in good shape for longer time.
irish44j, what about thicknes. the Z32 calipers are 30mm. is that mean, that they will fit only rotors 30mm thick ??? I found rotors 32mm thick and I`m affraid that they will not fit...can you advise...?

Here's a simple test for you. Stretch your left pointer finger out. Now, with your right pointer, index and thumb, squeeze on the base of your left finger. Pull it down while moving your left finger up.
Notice how easy it is to move the left finger up even with three fingers holding it down?
Now with the same set-up, move your right pointer and thumb to the tip of your left finger. Use both to pull your left finger down, while pushing your left finger up. See how much harder that was?
The first scenario is working similar to the smaller brake set-up.
The second scenario is working similar to a BBK.
It is a bit oversimplifying, but it follows the same theories.

by the way, you do realize that a 340mm rotor is not really much bigger than a 13" rotor (13"=330mm), right?
So what is the point of doing all this custom work just to get a rotor that is only 1cm bigger than the cobra rotors?????

Huh? Did you bother reading ANYTHING posted in this thread?
Someone needs to revoke your posting powers and just have you do research and read.
