Any ideas on what exactly they'd have to mod or fabricate? I've already got the Y-Pipe back add on from CattMan.... hmm.... I wonder if Brian would be able to manufacturer me something if sent him the kit.

I'll ping him and let you all know what he says.

 

I doubt Cattman will make a one off custom pipe to run Speedforce Setup, you need to ask your local shop..

Also this went way way way off topic

 

thought this was about 300z bbk........ not y pipes........

 

Sorry guys, was talking about the brakes earlier... got off topic. Apparently I don't have the ability to start threads though for some reason... not sure why ?? Tells me I don't have access!

 

Damm - 3k on brakes? What are they made of? CF?

 

That's cause you probably had less than 10 posts. Here in the org it works like that. The newbies must kiss the senior members a$$e$ for about 10 posts before they graduate. j/k man

 

$3,000 is actually pretty "low" of a price...

 

some of us are not ballers like you...

i am looking to spend little over 700 for the 300z bbk including new rotors, pads and ss linees all around..


and some Amsoil brake fluid as well ....

 

If I was to be ballin' then I would have had my full WilWood BBK a while ago

Just stating that is a "low" price considered to the BBK that I've seen people putting on their Z's...one was close to $8,000... for fawkin' brakes!

I too am planning on the full 300ZX upgrade because I want to save money for better things...non-car related...just modding for the things that I find reasonable right now.

 

i just picked up 2 "loaded" 300z calipers for 235 shipped....

 

fronts or rears?

"loaded" = rebuilt?

Where'd you get them from?

 

Loaded = with pads

I have had the 300zx brakes for a couple years now and I am very pleased with them. They make a great low cost alternative to an aftermarket BBK and they are a Nissan product. I'd really love to have the rears fit.

 

they are remanufactured.... so i can slap them on as soon as i take them out of the box!!

loaded comes with pads



they are fronts...

not many Altima guys are aware of this upgrade... I will do it and post it over there and see if i can create a buzz

 

Well hurry the fawk up!

 

SHUT it!


those guys need proof before they consider anything... I have to get my setup installed and pics before they will even consider it

 

i finished finally...

 

No pics !

 

HERE!!!!

 

 

 

Looks damn nice!!! Er . . why didnt u do the 350Z rear conversion too??

 

i had already bought the rotors. i did not want to spend any more than i already have in it...


but............................................... ................................



i am scoping out my350z.com.......

 

Looks great!!!!!!!!!

 

350z rears????tell me more

 

03 (i do believe) non brembo 350z rear calipers and rotors bolt right up to 6th gen rears...


and since 3rd gen altimas have the same rears as 6th gens...................









see where i am going with this....

Yes, the earlier 350z rotors and calipers bolt right up. The rotor is vented and the caliper and piston are slightly bigger. Made for better braking for me.
