If you want them we can get them, but we remove of shave them. Just like Stoptech Big Brake Kits, you have to shave them as well.

I don't have any pics of the front, because we removed them.

for the upgraded pads and 2 piece rotors....will they be bundled with the calipers and bracket? are new brake lines included? how much of an increase in price will they be? also will the 2 piece rotors fit my 5AT with the g37 bbk? also are the brackets the same type of quality as riverside infiniti's?

thanks

I don't think the 2 piece rotors are out yet. The only ones available for now are the OEM 1 piece. When they are I dunno if they will be bundled or not coz will have to answer that.

Brake lines are not included but you can buy some.

The brackets are great quality thick and sturdy just like riverside.

Yes, we will either make a kit, or make you make your own kit type of deal. Lines are $100 extra. 2pc Rotors will fit any G35-G37. Our Brackets are custom and make in the US. These are inspected and produced at the highest quality. I have not seen Riversides Brackets, so I do not know anything about theirs.

So these fit all sedans? I'm looking to do wheels/tires, suspension and brakes this spring. I've got an '06 X. Hopefully these can fit under 18"s...

No mods required, works with stock brake lines? Do you recommend/sell SS lines? Anything else I will need besides what's shown?

Kit Fits: 03-06 Sedans, ALL Models. Works with OEM brake lines, and SS lines are a nice upgrade, but not required for daily driving. You would need nothing else to install the kit, everything is provided.

when i replaced my pads today, i just realized that my left rear caliper is causing excessive ware on my pad compared to my right.....and my front right pad has a little bit of an uneven ware compared to the left

so this is a good enough excuse for me to upgrade to the g37 akebono bbk! YAY!

when my hawk pads are done, im definitely ordering this, by then the 2 piece rotors and pads upgrade will be available......i think i'll be the first in BC to have them on, cause autowest infiniti thought that it couldn't be done, and they have never seen it or herd it be done at all!
