Can you post some pics of what was needed to make this work?

 

If you decide to do this then I've got f/r 6th gen rotors with about 22k miles on them. You would have to get them cut though.

let me know if you'd be interested

I am just going to get new ones.I plan on installing these with slotted zin coated rotors.

 

!!! How much did those run you and are they single piston or dual? they look like single, but I'm not sure. Did you get the rear calipers as well?

 

They are the single piston nissan Altima SE-R caliper. It is made by tokico from what i have read and it is identical to the 04-Present Nissan Maxima.

 

No pics, but it is really simple. Enlarge the 12mm torque member holes on the car with a 9/16 or 14mm drill. Install new rotors and calipers with new 14mm bolts. Select 17" or larger wheels to clear these brakes. Finish. Enjoy.

 

Can I use the stock lines?

 

well my boss is away so here is some insight.

u need to drill the 12mm bolt out to 14mm, i'm sre you know that already. you can reuse the same lines and banjo bolt and it bolts up as easy as sunday morning once you have enlarged the tq member mounting holes to 14mm. also is hard to find a 14mm drill in a US store so u can use a 9/16th drill bit which is .5625 ( a 14mm is .5511 if i recall). thats what i did and it works fine. the stopping power is very nice ( almost to nice without abs). i'll post pics later. and pm me how much u paid for those calipers.

you also need a 6th gen tq member as well

 

Yes, they work just fine.

 

got the calipers these things are massive

 

I'm await of my 6th gen rotors. And these 6th gen calipers are beefy comparing to stock 4/5th gen. How much did you pay for your pair? I am just wondering how much did you overpaid for SE_R sticker and zinc coating.

P.S. I'd recommend you to go w/ blanks since slots don't really add any performance just looks. And with blank rotors your pads will last longer.

 

Its not zinc coating. Its actually powder coated silver then it seems the logo is applied then clear coated. i got them for $100 shipped for the pair brand new with hardware.

 

Bump. That's a nice price.

 

yeah..the power of ebay.

 

Zack have you installed them yet? Too bad I have to wait another week for my rotors to arrive.

 

too much rain this weekend. I will get to it soon. No rush i havent been driving my maxima much anyway.
