Well I might have a Smithy Big Brake kit available soon. will come with front R34 discs only and the adaptor for standard 300zx calipers.

Well I have just bought a pair of 350Z Brembos and discs. s/h plus some new pads from Smithy. Just need to ream out the lugs on the hub from 12 to 14 MM and bolt them on..

And apart from that do they fit propperly

R33 calipers and disks are direct fit no drilling no nothing :)

Well AndyP has already fitted them and yes is the answer.

Andy helped me with the deal to get them :bow:

 

 

Hmmm, yeah, and now I have to work out how to fit the rears to mine ....

Yeah, but you'd be surprised what you achieve when you put your mind to it. Biggest hassle is removing the hubs for modification ... (and the currently freezing cold weather)

I know its not cheap but how much would it cost to slap on 350Z brembo brakes all round on a zed?

Whatever you have to pay for them (£600-800 maybe) plus whatever it costs to modify the rear hubs. Plus new bolts and washers which is about another £25.

what sort of price would them badboys cost. do like the look of them.

I got them from Smithy but I`m not sure if he has anymore - drop him a pm mate

fitting a brembo 350z upgrade to my car and was wondering if id need a skyline spacesaver to accomadate the larger discs if i should get a puncture??

I tried a 350Z spacesaver but it didn't fit. Not tried a Skyline one yet.

I installed these goodies

Stops NICE Peddle feel is much better.

The whole package is much better than stock, but I made multiple changes so it is hard to differentiate between what made what difference.

 

Got the brackets & ss lines from Bernie > http://www.yugobernie.com/brake_adapter.html

 

the rotors, pads, and fluid here > http://www.zeckhausen.com/nissan_products.htm

Though you may be better off getting those local ;)
