I have read and seen a few threads from folks adding Nismo/Sport 370z akebono brakes your their 8th gen.

I’m in a situation where I was wanting to upgrade my Nismo 370 brakes and subsequently swap the Akebonos over to the maxima as a “free upgrade”.

In the few tutorials I have seen on this it seems everything bolts up to the maxima with addition of 370z short banjo bolts, and my reason for the post> hacking up of the dust shields. Does anyone know if the 370z sport shields will bolt onto the maxima? I understand the work involved with removing dust shields, but would prefer a Cleaner instal less prone to rust and fall off versus taking a cut of wheel to oem ones. If anyone knows let me know. I suppose I could buy a set and try but figured I would ask first.

 

LMFAO.

Have you seen a 370z/g37 sport dust shield? It's pretty much a joke....

Either remove your current one or hack it up. Not worth the effort for something that's literally a joke of a dust shield.

If you're that **** then just order a new one from the dealer, they seem to be around $80 msrp, can get online for less shipped each dust shield.

But to answer your quesiton.... Yes both vehicles have bolt on hubs, I do not see why you can't use that dust shield on your vehicle.

I also don't see why you would but.... meh.

 

obviously I have seen it as I’m pulling the setup off of my 370z. I am not claiming it is robust, just more that when I’m removing setup, would they bolt on. If someone knows for sure then I’m fine with the effort of unbolting the hubs. If someone said no they didn’t without modification then I would just remove mine. I saw people using die cutter and looked pretty hack

 

Curious how this turns out. I have never been impressed with the 2016-2019 Maximas stock brakes. Let us know what improvements you notice with the swap.

Thanks
