Will 350Z Brembo brakes fit a 05 SEDAN?

Not sure if this is the right place to post this or not, might be better in the mod section but I am not sure..

I have a 05 6MT Sedan and I have a chance to buy 4 Brembo Calipers, rotors and pads off a wrecked 350Z for $500 for the set...

I have checked and I know that is a super cheap price but I want to make sure they will actually work on my car..

I have the 19" G35 Coupe's wheels so I know that will not be a problem, I just want to make sure it will actually line up and work..
thanks

I'll let you know soon. Lord I hope so as I paid more than $500 for my set. Regardless of the price, if they work then fantastic. If they do not, Hello classifieds!

I would personally buy them and resell them to someone here on the forum. Unless your looking for looks, you won't gain much from going Brembos on your car. You already have very large brakes on the 05, and its less than .5 smaller than the Brembo sized ones. The 350z that was at the track this weekend had brake issues with his Brembos and almost went into a wall because they couldn't stop him on time. Mine stopped every single time without any issues. Plus his Brembos started to squeal really bad.

Yeah, I would just resell them and make some easy money. Unless you are positive it will work and be a step up from stock, I wouldn't mess with it.

If you are going to track the car at all, I would sell the Brembo set and with the money get yourself a front 13" Stoptech Kit.

+1

OEM are almost the same size and it will also be less of a headache. make some money off of them and pick them up or post them up for someone else that might want them

13" stoptech is a waste of money. We have 12.6-12.8 inch brakes already on the G35. Go 14"+.

How is that a waste of money? You don't think the 13" front kit combined with decent race pads and fluid will be able to stand up to track abuse? If you're saying go for the 14" just for the bling factor then you are talking to the wrong person.
