DAMN!!! Thease things stop this car like a 1000^2 ton granite ROCK......
Damn stock 18" dont clear the caliper by like 5mm
Oh well the new Nismos Are a perfect fit.
OE 19" Nismo perfect fit.
OE 18" fit with 6mm spacer.
OE 17" dont fit as the balance weight hits caliper, but they have enough side clearance.
Here are some dry preview pics to get ya'll drooling.
I will get some spacers tommorow until the new rubber arrives and install the new toys on my baby.
Oohhh yeah!! The kit costs $1350 + Shipping ............But IF YOU ORDER THROUGH
Brian Hasty - sales@fastbrakes.com and say who you are and that the first 2005 6th Gen owner highly recommended fastbrakes you get them at the intro price of $1250. A $100 off isnt too bad!
Ok I'm very excited to get thease installed.
Take Care Guys,
Kam

Will they sell pads and rotors only as well? I have a Wilwood kit that's waiting to be installed when I get my wheels back on. Do you happen to know the breakdown price if bought seperately? Nice looking kit btw!

I don't know what the deal is with this " Wildwood"? Why not just get a set of good cross drilled Rotors and keep the original Maxima calipers and go with Carbon Fiber brake pads or at least ceramic?

Right on the money DEUS!

That ought to look tight on your ride, man. Once you have it installed, in addition to pics, post your take on the performance difference. We'll all look forward to it.
You know what, now with the fronts on, the rears feel like they much tighter, they actually get hot now during driving, which they never did before.
I feel like they have better balance now then before.
Maybe its the ss lines, they dont expand as much and more pressure is applied to the rears.
I still have to track test them and see how they perform on the circuit......
Peace!

Its so sensitive it will even adjust the load to correspond to a tank of gas.
Who already knew this?

Electronic Brake Distribution, sensor with a gyro detects car load and adjusts the brakes accordingly.

HOW THE INSANITY OF THIS $hit works.
It comes even on the most standard maxima.
I am upgrading the rears, but only rotors, pads, sslines for now.
Peace bro,
