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.

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!

Well... not really, still need sway bar, strut bar, new performance shocks/struts, the intake manifold, throttle spacer..... damn, if there were only a bolt on Turbo or Supercharger available...

I'm gonna try taking pictures of her tomorrow.

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...

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.

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.

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.
