disk sizes

front


rear

 

hmm that's not too bad, measure that ish dude I can check it for you. PM'd. but my phone is not taking US incoming pictures for some reason I need to call those bishes.

 

Most awsome write up...Thank you! I have 2 questions though:
1st. Did you use any of the stock hard lines and brackets for the brake lines that attach to the back of the calipers from the G37s or do the lines (new StopTech SS) go right into the back of the calipers now via the banjo bolts?
2nd. Are there any issues with the ABS after this change?

Again...MANY THANX !!!

 

Not sure if anyone noticed but the rotors seemed to have been installed the wrong way. The rotor lines are facing the opposite direction. You guys put the driver side rotor on passenger side & vice versa.

 

There is 2 bleeder valve on each caliper.... Do you need to bleed both of them or juste one?

 

As long as the internal vanes are facing the right direction, the direction of slots or holes aren't critical.

Inside, then outside.

 

There is only one picture in this thread that is backwards and it's Michael's rear rotor a few posts up. The rest are installed properly.

 

Great DIY and that looks like it'd handle 10x better than before.

 

Also wondering do you really need to trim the front dust shield?? Cuz ive tested my front rotor and it fits perfectly without touching the dust shield

 

Handle or brake? Car will absolutely handle worse with these brakes vs.stock. More unsprung weight is bad for handling. These things are heavy.

I just removed my dust Shields when I read that didn't even try. I hate rubbing dust Shields lol such a nuisance

 

what adapter is needed to fit these on the g35 coupe.. it was mention in the beginning of the write up but I did not notice any type of extra equipment during or after the install process. novice mechanic.. lol

 

Are you saying the OP is a novice mechanic or you are? And the brackets are custom made by companies such as conceptzperformance.com

 

I am a novice at the mechanic bizz... sry.. but I always heard folks mentions that you will need adpt. for the fronts but never seen them put on during the installation process

Hey guys.....I am pissed and I need your help. I have been trying to find a company to make me either the Akebono stickers or the Stencils for the Akebono BBK and either get, "Sorry we cannot reproduce copyrighted logos" or in the case of vinyldecals.com they had them literally last week and when I sent them a message the response I got was "Sorry we are no longer offering those decals." WTF!!!
ANYONE have suggestions on where to get these?
