Brembo kit?

Is there a brembo big brake kit that'll fit the 8th gen Max without needing a bunch of bolts and random parts from other cars? If so, which part number? Thanks!

I too would like to know this. Also, is there any problems caused to systems such as automatic emergency braking, and intelligent cruise control if the braking is more powerful?

Akebono from the 370z nismo, is what you want. You need calipers, rotors, pads, and the short banjo bolt that were on the Z. That's all, and you'll need to trim the rotor guard.

The 350z rear brembos bolt onto the rear. Fronts not so much. You can buy a ridiculously over priced brembo gt kit for the front or go custom using Hyundai genesis track spec.

Do you happen to know the part number for those 3 options? If not, do you know the years for the 350z rear brembos or Hyundai genesis? Thanks!

It’s just the specific make/model years for the 350z brembo rear and Genesis coupe track spec front. I actually have a spare set of front brembo for sale locally on Craigslist. I could ship them; I’ll message you.

Hey. I PM'd back but I don't think it's going through. Are these the lighter brakes you talked about your other post? This would need 355mm rotors and pads, right? Would it need SS lines and the shield cut back too? I think that's all I'd need, right? FYI- I am interested.

^ Yes, even lighter because they use the stock size rotor. A 355 front rotor is way to large. I have 350z light weight 2 piece rotors but haven’t installed them yet. Currently using the stock Maxima front rotor as shown in the pics. For reference the dimensions:

350z Brembo caliper front rotor uses 324mm x 30mm (12.8" x 1.18")

8th gen maxima front rotor uses 320mm x 28mm

Hey hey, long time no talk. So I'm finally doing my rear brakes and found the correct Brembo pads since they list them. What year was it that the 370Z rear rotors match up? Thanks!
