G35 Brembos on Maxima

Anyone know if the Brembos from a G35 would bolt on to a 6th Gen Maxima?

nissannews.com's specifications for the 05 G35 and Maxima have the same size rotors. The 04 and earlier G35's actually had smaller rotors. So if it works let me know... as my other thread was asking about rotors for the Max that aren't Nissan's OEM rotors.

oh... and the rear rotors are NOT the same for any year. G35's rear rotors are vented, and the Maxima's are not.

Since most of the braking forces , 90% or so, are from the front brakes, if the front Brembo calipers fit, I think that would be a really nice upgrade. I know that Brembos are great brakes from my 04 Spec V with the Brembo option. Also, I think the gold color would look cool, especially with a black car (like mine!!)

75% braking power to the front....... this would be nice, but I hope you guys are talking bout getting the rotor only cause on my 02 I was going to do a caliper mod from the Z to my 02 max and those calipers cost 1200 A PIECE!!!
the G35 calipers have to be up there also..

I think Performance Nissan in Duarte, CA has a kit to convert non-Brembo brakes to Brembo. Not sure of the cost but I inquired because a friend of mine has a non Brembo G35 and consdiered a conversion to the Brembos. I seem to remember it being pretty expensive. A good alternative is to find a wrecked Brembo-equipped G35 as the cost for used Brembos will be much cheaper.
