^lol I doubt it's that one if he was just doing a pad replacement but who knows. Yeah, he'd be one strong SOB if he snapped that one haha
I have to look at the rear again....I don't think the spindle is removable like the front. Hmmm....he may be able to drill it out/get to it after removing the rotor.

No worries Mustang. I wasn't sure about the X which is why I asked. Thanks for clearing that up Jeff.

 

Here's a pic of the caliper. (05+ but will work). He needs to point to the ones shown (small) or the ones not shown (big)

 

Nice Stoptech box

 

haha. Yeah, the Z owner that sold me his oem 06 brakes used those boxes to send me the parts. He upgraded to stoptechs. I was excited for like 0.2 seconds.

 

hahaha..."oh ****, he made a huge mistake!....oh, maybe not -_- "

 

wow this forum rules, didn't think it would get this many replies.

First off, i got it fixed just finished it up tonight....

Looking at Jeff92se pic he posted its the bolts to the left that attach the caliper to the bracket. It is only threaded for like half and inch, then the rest is a slide pin. On the back it is one peice, the front there is a bolt and a slide pin two pecies.

The car had been in a accident before i bought it, and i think they got a used rear end from a junk yard that sat out, because everything was corroted like crazy. It also looks like the last guy that did the brakes only undid the top, as they were lubbed up, the bottoms weren't. The part that was stuck was held in by 0 threads, you would think it would be easier to get out, but with threads you atleast have something to help get it out.

Anyways took it to work, the guys in the machine shop said they could do it, but it still might be messed up in there, and i should try to find one at a junk yard... some how i lucked out, because i found a local yard that has 4 G35 sedans that match my year!!!!

Cost 50 bucks... but that was less then 210 for a whole new setup from the dealer

Thanks for all the replies, once i found the bracket I sort of forgot that i posted this, then remembered once i finished up the car.

 

if you found a junk yard with 4 sedans in there, you can be making a LOT of money....

 

If you are from Norcal, please PM me the name of this junk yard

 

Yeah i'm already planning on getting more stuff now...

There prices are weird though... 50 bucks for the bracket, actually the person at the counter said 75, but i had gotten 50 over the phone. Thats a lot for just a bracket, but it did come with all the mounting hardware, pins, which i had already ordered for 12.50 from the dealer...

They said a whole leather seat including motors and sensors would be 150 which i think is pretty damn good, and only 40 to have it installed.... My seat is starting to go, and the dealer wanted over a grand...

I'm going to be making a shopping list. Seems like small parts are expensive there, but big parts are cheap... oh well.

 

if its a pick and pull, some things like a bracket can EASILY fit in your cargo pant pockets...

 

If I was advertising "Now doing bolt-on work for chicago area" in my sig I wouldn't also be posting about stealing car parts when people aren't looking. But thanks for the warning
