there is way to much to read so i will just comment what i personally know.
with my enlarged tq member mounting holes i had an entire non- brembo 350 brakes setup on my car. ( calipers/ rotors/ tq member) and it fit fine. i would have to assume that the brembo stuff should fit any 4th gen-6th gen max/alti if they have the correct tq member bolt size.
if i recall the only issue we had on my car was that the rotors were to tall by about 1mm or so but that wasnt to bad.

I cant imagine how the rotors could be off since a stock 350z set up fits out cars, so why wouldnt the Brembos fit? I even have an entire rear 350z caliper and rotor on the rear of my car and it was a bolt on.

Front & Rear Infiniti G35 Brembo Callipers & Rotors
- Front Option 1: Require Special bracket to move the Caliper 1/8" further from the hub. & 1"1/2 longer brake Hose. (I switched to Stailess steel at the same time)
- Front Option 2: Require to remove 1/8" all around the front rotor and re-balance the rotor. After this, Direct Bolt On. (Since the rotor we're used, this is the option I choose, until I have to replace the rotor anyway)

So if u slap on OEM size maxima rotors you are laughing

I thought someone tried the G calipers and it didn't fit on the 6th gen? 6th gens use the same sized 12.6" rotors as the 05+ G/Z non brembos. But I read the offsets were diff. So the problem wasn't the rotor size but rotor hat offsets?
Well dunno. Racing brake lists teh same 12.6" rotor p/n for the 6th gen and non-brembo G35. Looking better.

I think the problem is that the caliper has to be relocated UP from the caliper, not to the side of it. Spacers wont work in this case for that reason. A machined bracket would be the best solution, but kind of expensive, and hard to find unless it could be made yourself or u can have someone competent make it. The easiest solution appears to be shaving the rotor by 1/8".

Spacers wouldnt work as the diameter of the rotor for whatever reason was too big. I thought the rotors were 12.6" just as ours were. I tried some washers and every time I went to tighten the caliper down it kept hitting the rotor.

You would have to bolt it up and check pad/rotor seating. My BBK is for a 350Z and it had to be spaced 4.6mm up to clear the rotor. The problem is the spindle on the Z sits higher than on the Max. As pointed out earlier the stock system can't be spaced up, any aftermarket system can be though(to my knowledge).

Brembos on a Altima
The rotor I have used in my conversion are the OEM Brembo rotor.
From what I saw, the only reason I had to cut down the rotors is because on an altima, the holt for the Galiper bolt are 1/8" closer to the hub.
It is very much possible that it will be a direct bolt on the Maxima since you have bigger rotor than us.

Have you been able to find a rotor that you don't have to cut down because I have a set of brembos but I don't have OEM brembo rotors. The rotors are like $150 each. I already have the front set on but i need to change rotors.
