G35 Rear Brake setup question...

ive already searched for this answer...and couldnt find what i was looking for

my question is...do ALL G35 coupes come with rear ebrake drum assemblies or just the brembo equiped models??? (as in the drum is your ebrake and the caliper is your actual rear brake) or was this only on the 03/04 models with brembos?

i own a 240sx currently (some of you know who i am)...and we got shafted with old 90s technology of having a single piston rear caliper that functions as both the ebrake and rear brake...to upgrade our rear brakes we have to switch over using Z32 rear 2 piston calipers...but in order to keep the ebrake function...we have to use Z32 rear drum brake assemblies as well (or run a hydraulic ebrake...which is a whole 'nother mess)

so my concern is that i want to get into a G35 one day soon...but if i have to swap the rear ebrake assembly from a brembo equipped model just to run brembo brakes on a non brembo G35...ill just hunt down a 03/04 model with brembos already installed (swapping the rear drums/spindles is a pain in the ***...i converted my 240 to 5 lug and that wasnt fun)

i dont wanna put the flame suit on...so keep the snide answers to a minimum please...a very specific answer will help and i will close the thread

350z w/brembo and G35 /brembo have the same rotor part number, so i'm ASSUMING they are that same all the way around.
