Need help getting calipers

Was wondering if anyone else did a brake upgrade on their G35, I thought my stock brake calipers would fit, but they don't, so now i need all 4-piston calipers for a 12.5" rotor. Was wondering if anyone could help me find just all 4 calipers, any price under 1,500.

Here are the options:

2003-2004 with Brembo

2003-2004 without Brembo

2005+

You have the Brembo calipers correct? My question is why are you trying to replace them?

The current calipers are too small, just need larger ones since i upgraded to a larger disk.

If you can't answer the question about which set of equipment your vehicle currently has based on the above three options then we can't really help you.

You can't just "upgrade to bigger rotors" they are designed to work with a very specific caliper, the three working sets are the ones I listed above.

EXACTLY what setup did you buy the rotors for? I'm just assuming you have a 2003-2004 non-brembo caliper and you probably bought the brembo rotors. If that's the case you need the OEM Brembo calipers, lines, etc.

Just get rotors for your car since you really have no idea what you're doing. You can't just get bigger rotors and expect it all to work.
