What do you guys think of the color? My friends say they look like Brembo's from a distance.

 

It was alot of work, I stayed up till 4am last night.
I still have some clearance issues with the left side .
I had to buy longer studs, wheel spacers and a whole bunch of bolts and washers.

 

Looks good, now paint that bumper

 

OH I forgot to mention there 13" Cobra rotors...

 

Hotness.. now put that tranny in,

 

how hard was the install? looks hottt

 

dope! i wanna do this also, but im currently strapped for skrills...japmax, how much u have to spend on the calipers and reloc brackets? and were the rotors drilled to max spec or no? what offset wheels used? sorry bout all these ?'s but i need ta know!! great job!

 

It was Kind of hard In my case my 18's width was to close to the center of the wheel "deepdish" and it wouldn't fit I had to get some wheel spacers other than that longer studs and a little bit of grinding. OH and there is a trick to get that dust sheild off after spending an hr on the first one I figured all I had to do was Bang on it left to right break it loose and get some metal cutters and cut one end and bend it off it took like 5 min . You can get the reloc brackets from Jeff and the SS lines from MaTT Blemco Here's a link to some GD's you will find most of the things needed here if not ask Jeff or MAttBlem, I'm not to familiar with some of the setups I did this one with Jeff's brackets and Matt's SS lines I had to drill holes to match factory specs cause no one has the rings to buy from,,, Jeff has a set but he's currently trying to find a machine shop to machine them.

1. 30mm Alumn cals $80 J/Y

2. SS lines from MATT93se $50 shipped

3. Jeffs brakets $45 shipped

4. I used 4 spacers each wheel I think it was like 1.2"
Spacers were a Freebie got them at work.

Looks good!

 

In MIA all the good J/y's are on 135th st it's well known down here for parts over thousands of cars ranging from brand new to old. The only way your going to get the best out of these J/y's is to be here and actually go in don't talk to anyone because most of them don't even know what they got. For instance I asked one of the owners and said do you have any 300zx cals he said ummm NO I said are you sure ,,, NO! I was like hell nah there like thousands of cars in your lot you don't have one ZX. So I took it upon me and walked right in the yard and beleive it or not it was sitting right there in perfect condition.

 

Car-Part.com its a great source for parts

 

I got the Rotors here through a friend of mine.

Rear Xdrill , ss lines next week .
