Brembo G35 calipers...Can it be done???

Ive been searching over the past couple of days to find answers regarding this issue and i cant seem to come up with any. I basically was given the brembo calipers from our g35 drift car and i dont know if the task of making them work with a bbk is cost efficient or worth it. So basically please give me some feed back from some of the brake guru's

Thanks,

Jon

You will need custom brackes, some appropiate rotors with the correct offsets, custom brake lines and then make sure your wheels can clear the calipers.

But if you are lucky, maybe Brembo custom made these calipers to Nissan/Infiniti oem torque members. If you have them on hand, just take off your caliper and test fit.
