I'm picking up the '97 SE tomorrow...muahahahaha!!

Just was curious...what kinda mods are out there for the brakes??

I know that their are Cross-Drilled Rotors and SS Brake Lines from Stillen (I think)...is there anything else??

Also...
Where can I get them?
How much?
Is it worth it?

Thanks!

Shingles just set up a Group Buy with www.FastBrakes.com for Wilwood brakes (~$900). If they come out alright, there might be another one. I got slotted rotors with mine, but they won't arrive for awhile.

Check out www.NipponPower.com for Goodridge G-stop SS lines about $120 for the set.

Stillen also sells a "Big Brake" set up for $1,600(?).

Some people have done retrofits with 300ZX and Skyline brakes, but they require a little custom fit work. You can look around for instructions & hints. Try www.MaximaDriver.com for the 300ZX install directions.

that site looks like its only for hondas and acuras like usual, but can't you get some brakes from avalonracing.

i like the six piston ap big brake system. but i dont' got money for it.. there's enough stuff out there for you to swap out your whole system.. (brake calliper/pad and rotor + brake lines)
