Are these a "direct bolt-on"? I may invest in some, even if they may not fit my rims.......stupid small offset......
Also, are you having to replace the rotors and brackets as well? Thanks guy.

For the most part it is a bolt on........with the exception of needing to mill 3 mm off the radius of 300ZX rotors.......
Offset of wheel is a problem....... I think with a spacer they will fit.

Where you bought them from, do they have any more? I have been searching and everyone else either does not have them or they are TOO expensive.....

Im hoping that will be under the tree or something. If not I'll get em off ebay..........im going with hawk pads.

Apparently Ramius and I got very lucky on the price we paid for our TT calipers.....70$ and 80$ respectively. Mine are of a 92 and are aluminum. The junkyard shipped everything.......the clips...pins......shims......all looks to be in great shape. Even pads........but I'm swapping those for Hawk pads.

Ben, just to let you know. At the last meet, a 300ZX friend of mine showed up. Of course, he has the regular 300ZX brakes on his front that I will be putting on my car. Since my wheels have a lip (stupid Botbet Type Es lololol), I was worried that the back of the spokes on my wheels would not clear the 300ZX calipers. So, we took off one of my wheels and we took off his front left wheel. We put the Borbet wheel on his car and to MY amazement, the rear part of my spokes BARELY clear the calipers, maybe about a 1/16" to 1/8" gap....pretty close if you ask me. But it will work, so all is good......
