ive currently got r32 brakes on me zed but i'm wanting something abit more up to date, very tempted by a full brake setup from a front end damaged 370z for 700 notes, whats your forts is it the right thing 2do???

sounds like a bargain, z1 have just started to sell them for $1800 in the states.

 

i drove the managers 370 the other day, they are a bit boring compared to a TT Z32, but bloody hell they stop quickly. ,

Deffo do it!

i was thinking they were good value meself, anyone know of any complications with the change over, has anyone done it yet??

I think you could be the 1st on here to do it.

As long as you use larger wheels (18in) and no doubt fit the required brackets, then 370z calipers and discs and possibly braided lines, then i believe they will fit straight on.

Price i would say is a bargain btw

wheels are 18's and not deep dished so should be know problem there, lines are included. going to have to check up on spec of brackets but if i come across any problems i think i should be able to sell full brake setup again easy enough

Just buy yer brackets from Z1 mate, tried and tested and used on many over in the US, saves any faffing about and costs about 150 delivered i think.

ive fort against buying these calipers as christmas is coming up but this is the company which offered me them all for £700 if anybodys interested its in peterlee and i was going to collect but he will arrange postage http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/2010-Nissan-370Z-3-7-Black-Edition-Breaking-Spares-/360500724198?pt=Automobiles_UK&hash=item53ef8481e6

Is there anything special/different about the 370z brakes? All I'm saying is, if they are the same as the 350z, then don't pay over the top just because they are from a 370. The 350 brakes are good and are an easy bolt-on upgrade.

They're monsters compared to the 350z brembos!

I've been looking at this for a while, If your looking at the brackets from z1 there site says only the fronts are a straight bolt on, the rears require the calipers to be machined.

 

Do you guys think the brake balance would be out by much if you were to only do the fronts.

I would advise front and rears the Akebono fronts are HUGE so bias would be out.

How big are we talking for these discs and how many pistons? How does it compare to the D2 setups for bang for your buck?
