i have a base 2005 G35 coupe and my brakes are shot.. im about to get my tax return and am not sure what the best deal would be.. i hate the looks and performance of my OEMs..

what would be my best increase in braking performance while not spending $6k???

i dont wanna keep my calipers so its either:

OEM BREMBO kit w/ upgraded pads, rotors and lines

or

OEM G37S kit w/ upgraded pads, rotors and lines

or

Ksport BBK(most expensive outta my bunch at $4k)

 

GET THE G37 bbk

 

OEM brembo if you are concerned about performance

 

IMHO? oem Brembo on Racing Brake's 2 pc rotors for the oem brembo.

G37 setup is nice as the front rotor is 14". But that rotor also weighs approx 24-26lbs. On your 05, you would be adding a good 5-6lbs of roatational weight to each corner.

For all you pre-05 guy adding the G37 setup, it would be like adding a good 10lbs to each corner.

 

i was told about the weight issue for the G37S brakes and i was hoping that me using 2 pc rotors would solve that issue..

wouldnt it?

 

It would if they were available. ARe they available?

 

honestly.... havent looked thought they would be by now...

 

G37 brakes...i believe they out performed the 03-04 Brembos!!!

 

To my knowledge there are some 2 piece rotors in the works but none are released as of yet.

 

yeah i cant find 2 pc.. just some 1 pc sets..

 

My memory says the oem Brembos were 60-0 in around 110-115 ft.

What did the G37 Akebonos do?

 

^yeah i believe COZ is making a 2 pc!!!

 

links?

 

found some for the bremos of course.. i just want the best quality and performance without breaking the bank(no pun)

 

Yeah i can't remember either, i just remember seeing a thread about it, and from what i remember the 37 brakes performed just as good if not better than the OEM brembos...i'll try and find the thread!!!
