That question is physically impossible to answer without actually test fitting it. You'd have to either buy a whole set from the dealer ($$$$) or wait for a G37 owner to get a BBK (still have to wait for someone to fab. a BBK for the car) and buy it from them.

I beg to differ by x4326 times.

Not only do the G37 BBK brakes make the OEM 03-04 G35 Brembo's look puny in size, they should probably outperform them.

03-04 Brembos: 4 piston front calipers, 12.6 inch rotors
G37 BBK: 4 piston front calipers, 14.0 inch rotors.

Throw some sloted/drilled rotors into the G37 (for the looks, if not "added" performance) and powder coat the calipers black and ...

Too bad the G37 has that extra 200 lbs to carry around. If it were at the same weight as the 03-04 coupes, those brakes would perform so much better over there already-good performance.

The OEM brembo's are not 2 piston front calipers, not sure where you got that idea from.

For that amount of effort, you'd be better off getting an aftermarket 14" BBK since I'm sure the OE setup will be extremely pricey and like the Brembos, cost more to buy the parts for than an aftermarket kit.

If people really want the Infiniti logo that bad on the calipers, buy you can buy some stickers.

My mistake. I must have gotten the wrong info. Either way, G37 brakes > 03-04 Brembo's.

I completely agree. But since he was asking for the G37 brakes, I had to give me opinion in regards to the topic.

I don't even want to think about how much dealers would charge for the G37 brakes!

larger brakes are not necessarily better, they only add heat capacity in a track situation. Since they are relatively new, a better set of performance pads on the OEM brakes can perform better than the g37 brakes. The g37 brakes will also be heavier. They aren't necessarily "better" per se. It depends on the application and if the bias is similar for the G35.
