i was wonderin would i be able to fit the 06 coupe front and rear calipers on my 04 g35 sedan can u let me know what i will have to do in order to get this set up goin thanks

 

Yes you can.

You'll need front calipers and rotors, rear rotors and i beleive for the rear brakes you only need the intermediate braket that holds the pads as it's spaced off the spindle farther. I think the caliper is the same, so you can just unhook yours, move it out of the way and then swap the bracket.

I'd do a search though. It's been done many times and i'd let someone who's actually done the swap answer

 

ok if i get the front calipers and rotors i wouldnt need to change the bracket it should just bolt right on is that what ur saying im not gunna change the rear calipers now later on when i get some more money i will do that part

 

Yeah, upbolt the caliper you have now from the spindle and bolt the new ones on.

No idea if the brake hose needs to be changed though. Also, you'll need to get new copper washers from a parts store

I really suggest getting the full story from someone who's done it though. I'm sure someone will chime in soon

 

I've done it. Research "threads created by this user" option and limit it to the brake section. (Advanced search option)

 

I'm too nice sometimes

thanks guys i really appreciate this

 

imma go try it i should just take my 1 piston caliper out and then just put the 2 piston caliper in wit out any problems right

 

Well you need the rotors too

 

You need everthing. calipers, rotors, pads and lines. Or swap in SS lines like I did. Trim the rear shield and it's bolt on

 

No you cannot use the 2 piston rotor for the 12.6" rotor with the smaller 11.5" rotors

All or nothing.

 

im only doin the front for now which should i get the 05 or 06

 

the main thing i want to understand is that i can use back my bracket right

 

Same caliper. Doesn't matter.

Only the 05 G35X doesn't have it. It still uses the 03/04 brakes for some reason.


Basically, the caliper is 2 peices. You have the part with the pistons and the support bracket that holds the pads. Remove both together, and replace with both from the 05/06 caliper.

 

the 05/06 front caliper will bolt right up. YOu do need the right sized rotors to fit. To do the rears, you will need a bracket which will allow you to move the exisitng caliper further away from the spindle allowing for a larger rotor to fit. You will need new brake lines so you might as well upgrade to Stainless steel lines.. I would save the money for both front and rear to get it done right. I'm not 100% but if you only change the front, your front to rear brake bias might be changed.
