? on possible brake swap

i was just wondering if it's possible to swap out the base-x models brakes for the larger sport brakes... and if so, how much work would be involved...

any info would be appreciated, thanx

As long as they are a dirrect bolt on no hardware modifications and you swap front for front and rear for rear then you will have no problems. I assume it would be the same as mounting the OEM G35 brembos to a non brembo g35.

im pretty sure its direct bolt on because the brembos directly bolt on to non brembo models.. you might have to bend or cut the dust shield so that the bigger rotor will not be against it
