New AP racing brakes.

Recently just added new AP Racing 4 Piston front and rear brakes with 2 piece drilled/slotted brakes from Stillen to my G. They look and work great. Items I have added to my G so far is as follows:
Tires: Michelin Pilots 225/45ZR/18 front, 255/40ZR/18 rear
Wheels: SSR GT3 18x8.5 +37 offset front, 18x9.5 +55 offset rear
Radio: Pioneer DVD Flip up screen with 5.1 dolby digital surround
Amps: Rockford fosgate punch 4x100 and 1x1,000 watt amps
Speakers: Polk db Audio components front and rear doors, 50 watt clarion center channel under head unit, Polk Momo 12" 1,000 watt sub.
Headrests with monitors: SAVV mobile media electronics. Mine was specifically made for a Lexus IS300 but happened to fit perfectly.
Exhaust: Stillen dual catback exhaust
Window Tint: Legal smoke tint for front gradually dark to rear window
Debadged: Nissan logo with Skyline 350GT lettering

Those brakes are serious. Very Porsche-like. They look great. How many pots front and rear? I'll venture a guess and say four front, two rear.

Nice, nice mod.

Looks sweet, but that car is begging for a drop.

I thought about putting it under the light, but wanted to be a little different than everyone else.

Tires rubbing

I had to put the original brakes back on the rear. With +55 offsets in the rear wheels I had to place a wheel adapter to extend the wheels outward so the wheels don't hit the calipers but now the the tires rub. The front wheels fit fine with a +37 offset. They even clear the rear calipers by about a 1/4 inch.
Just a note to everyone considering AP brakes for the rear. The factory rotor sits inside of the brake dust cover. The larger AP rotor is placed just ouside of the dust cover or closer to the wheel. I have done some research and found that the rotors from Stoptech's big brake kit you have to remove or cut out the factory dust cover because it sits in the factory location which lets the calipers clear my wheels fine.

Off-topic: SixGear, I just noticed the 2.5 GT (Wagon?) sitting next to your G. Is it yours? If so, is it a 5MT or 5AT model? Enjoy it? PM me if you'd like to keep the thread clear. My wife still wants a 5MT GT Limited Wagon, so you can see my interest.
