Torque specs on front caliper bolts non-brembo

Can anyone please tell me what the Torque specs are for the large (orange) caliper bolts for the non-brembo OEM 05 G35 coupe? Also the torque specs for the smaller guide pins (blue) that hold the caliper in place. I did a search on this and came up empty handed, I apologize in advance if I missed the info somewhere or if this is a repost.

The pic is not from a G35 but you get the idea.

According to the Haynes DIY repair manual, the torque specs for non brembo calipers are 20-26 ft lbs for the front, and 32-43 ft lbs for the rear.

^ Are you sure these specs are correct? I found the info somewhere else a few days ago and it said 79.6 for the big bolts and 33 for the smaller ones. Please verify this and let me know and I'll readjust them.

ok maybe we're both wrong...

I just found this here http://www.350z-tech.com/zwiki/Category:Brakes

front small bolts are 17-22 ft-lbs
rear large bolts are 113-114 ft-lbs

Can anyone else verify this?

Yeah the caliper mounting bolts where it goes onto the bracket need to be pretty tight around 113-130. Those smaller ones that you are referring to are the ones that are 20-26. Those specs you came across are going to be a little different since its from a different source, but its all in the same ball park. Either ones will work fine.
