Just the fronts for now. Plan on trying something different for the rears, I will post pics when its complete.
Yes, stock master cylinder. The pedal travel seems about like it used to be, but the pads that came with the Brembo's were about half worn and my rears are pretty worn as well. So after I get the rear brakes on and some new Project MU pads on the fronts, then I can really compare the difference. I have done quite a bit of threshold braking and they will put you through the windshield if need be. I can tell you they dust just like the OEM floating setup too, which I can't stand and even more of a reason to get different pads.
Isn't the master cylinder the same for brembo and non-brembo cars?

I don't know for 100%. On the Z forums, the MS is apparently divided into base/non-base. The non-base getting the larger one. ODD.
Here, I read the brembo equipped cars get the larger unit. But this is from memory.
I'm on 06 Z non brembos on my 03 sedan. I really like the performance and the pedal travel "might" have increased slightly. the nice feature of the 2 piston versions is that Infiniti put much less dusty pads as their oem fare.
