Brembo Brakes From 03 on 06??

Will the Brembo brakes that are on an 03 G35 fit on a 2006 G35 Coupe?

If so where would I get them OEM priced??

Why would you want to spend oem price for those brembos? What is your price range for a bbk? The akebonos would be a much better choice if you want an oem bbk (from 370z) or if your price range permits going for a real bbk would be an option as well. You can always watch for an used pair of the brembos to pop up if you really wanted them...

Frequently monitor the Marketplace or even Ebay. I too was going to switch to OEM Brembos until I found a BBK for only $500 more.

I was under the impression the brakes on the later G's were non-brembo but the disk size was increased, thus wouldn't be the better performing option?

^The later models do have upgraded brakes compared to the 03-04, but from what I've heard the Brembos will still outperform the 06 setup. I created a thread similar to this a little while ago which might be helpful:

from what i've learned from this forum, the Brembos have a smaller front disc diameter, but the rear discs are larger, also i believe the Brembos have more pistons overall than the 05-07 brakes.

if my info is correct on a one stop basis they stop quite similarly, but the Brembos are less susceptible to brake fade.

get the akebonos

Well the reason I said OEM Brembos is because I figured they could be ripped off an 03 G35/350z and put on my 06. I really like the Brembo Calipers. Its more of a cosmetic thing. I have no problem with the stock brakes

I was speaking of the akebono kit, not the standard brakes on 05+ g's.
