6 Gen Brake Calipers!

6 Gen Brake Calipers!
Ok, all you 6-genners. I want your calipers.
I've been considering brake upgrade options, and I have settled on simply swapping out my stock calipers and rotors for 6 gen stock calipers and some aftermarket 6 gen rotors. My only problem now is finding a set of 6 gen calipers.
I know that most of you who do brake upgrades keep your stock calipers, so I won't have much luck finding a used set from the Org, but surely somebody here on the 6 gen boards can give me a tip on where to find the best deal on 6 gen rotors (besides scouring junkyards for wrecked cars... which is what I may end up doing).

sorry, meant 04' nissan quest brakes. the bolts location should fit right up. but
the caliper/pads are bigger. the quest pad length is 5.2in, width 2.11, and thickness is .39in. As for the maxima its 4.37in, 2.46in, and 0.37in. the rotors are exact size.
yea i'm off sugarloaf & 120

man I would pm IRISH44, he did the swap. and I don't think the rear 17'' rim will fit on.. send him a pm before anything cause he had a prob with fitment...
EDIT: even with the g35 18's he got they didn't fit just like that, he had to put spacers for those rims. so do yourself a favor...
