Does 14" 355mm Brembo rotor fit our stock Brembo caliper? Or do I need to replace the caliper to make it fit?

You can't fit a 14" rotor without changing other components. Think about it, the caliper is fixed, but you're trying to increase rotor diameter?

If you want a larger rotor, you'll need a caliper relocation bracket. There was someone on this forum making them for the G35s, but you had to use a 15.2" rotor.

I was running 314mm (12.36") rotors on my front, now I'm using 345mm (13.6") rotors in the front. But I had to make a pair of brackets.

Most 14" rotors are 32mm thick. The stock brembos are 30mm thick, so you'll also have to consider that.

Unless you're really familiar with the brakes, you're going to find it more trouble than you've anticipated.

Thanks for that info E_K.

Was just wondering about the fitment because Stoptech ST40 4pot caliper can accommodate both of their 355mm and 332mm rotors. But then again both of their rotors are 32mm in thickness.

i know that stock mustangs can upgrade their rotors to a bigger size...thats the 06 GT though. I doubt a 14 inch rotor will fit the brembos though...
