"Jeff_Iwata@yahoo.com" is the paypal. Make sure you tell me who you are, what you are buying and where to send it to.

Or else the $ goes to my 19" G35 coupe wheel fund.

 

price plz.

 

$90 shipped.....

 

duhh . . . I should have realized that 13" rotors on 15" wheels. I'll go the milled down Z/Q/J calipers.

I will buy the brakets and rings because I will get new wheels later in the year and will get the Z calipers.

I'll be purchasing from you on friday.

 

Money sent. I better not see you rollin around on 19'' wheels.

 

alrighty I'm going to order Jeffs Brackets and rings (for Z calipers in the future).
Going with J30 calipers ($40), J30 brake pads ($60), J Rotors ($70), Milling down will call around to various shops tommorow.
Going to order parts end of this week.

Anyone have a link/write up on installing pads into a 2 piston caliper? I'm pretty sure its not really the same as on the max/1piston.



edit: good info for people to read up a little on the Z calipers.

Dandy . . .just Dandy

 

I received the hardware, thanks Jeff.

 

How much for just the hub ring? Where do I get the bolts and stuff from and which ones?

 

Just received mine also. Thanks Jeff.

 

Your the 2nd person to ask/buy just the hub rings. Why do you want just the hub ring?

 

Someone is selling the brackets

 

Who? Who would just have the brackets?

 

Someone in the forsale forums. Forgot the name.


I will prob just buy both from you. But do you know what bolts I need to get? The sizes and grade? I DONOT have a local place that will have metric bolts.

 

Werd, i need to know this as well.

I read they will have the bolts. But which ones

 

that site is a can of worms.

 

I'll try to dig up what I bought. But I since I had a ton of maxima brake bolts/parts, I just cobbled up something. I know the brake grade bolts were teh same or higher than what's there already. That's key. I think I used the two existing ones to attached the caliper to the bracket. But make SURE, they DON'T protrude too far. Or else it will contact the rotor surface. Use washers to prevent this.

Then I bought new bolts/nuts/lock washers to attached the bracket to the torque arm assembly.

 

Use IE and it works

 

no, i mean, i dunno where to start searching for the correct hardware on the site

 

Anyone figure out the sizes?

 

I'm tempted to call the dealer and ask about the brake hardware.

 

Basicly you take the two exsting bolts down to a hardware store, find 2 more in the same strength grade, size and thread. Then ask for 2 nuts that fit (in the same strength) and lockwashers. Technically, they don't have to be the same thread size but it's just makes for a cleaner install. I don't remember if the stock sized bolts are too long when they are used to attach the caliper to the bracket. But you can always just buy shorter versions or use a flat washer along with the lock washer.

 

Wouldl HD or Lowe's have higher strength bolts? What's the grade/scale for determining strength?

 

Best bet is a fastener supplier. Strength grade is written on the head of the bolt.

 

i've been using this place for a while, if anyone is interested

I take it home depot wouldnt have the proper size bolt nor grade? I think the highest grade Home depot has is 8.
Did you invert your splash shield instead of cutting it off?

If the grade is on the head of the bolt it looks like that is a grade 5 bolt. What grade does nissan use? I thought I saw 7 on the bolt for the torque memeber.

 

Stock splash guards and I don't remember the bolt grade sorry

 

Did you get the torque member when you purchased your?

I just got my J30s today and I didnt get a torque member. And they are not the same as the stock caliper torque member.


These bastards are heavy. Mine will definately need a few coats of paint before going on.

 

Here are mine:

 

you betta clean them bad boys...up!

 

no doubt, they are lookin RUFF!!

 

oh you did get the torqu memeber. . . they screwed me its an extra $40 for the torque member "caliper bracket"

 

what exactly is it?

 

Mine are still at the junkyard on the J30 so mine should come with it
