Hmm...well I'm going to the "meet" tonight, so is tomorrow good?
Btw, should i buy from CZP or Riverside Infiniti? Last time i was there, I was talking to Rick and he said they sell they same kit for like the same price. And they'll also send it to mikethepowdercoater for me, so i won't have to send the calipers myself.

From what I'm reading on Tony's thread, though, which is probably outdated considering this post is from 2008, the complete kit with OEM rotors is $2500.

IOS Bracket Kit:
- This track tested bracket set will allow you to bolt the larger G37S/FX50S or 370Z Akibono calipers to your older model G35 Coupe, Sedan or 350Z. The bracket kit includes all the necessary hardware for installation and even includes a 12mm allen wrench for the hex head bolts!
Includes:
* Left and Right Bracket
* 4 Caliper to Bracket Bolts
* 4 Bracket to Spindle Hex Bolts
* 4 Lock nuts for Hex Bolts
* 12mm Allen Wrench
Rotors:
-OEM
- Standard Rotors
-Brake Pros Cross Drilled Rotors
- 1-piece Sport Rotors are a great choice for performance, durability and style when staying with OE factory calipers. These high-performance upgrades directly replace those plain OE factory rotors with no modification required. Applications for cars are finished with a clear zinc plating for exceptional corrosion resistance.
-Brake Pros Slotted Rotors
- 1-piece Sport Rotors are a great choice for performance, durability and style when staying with OE factory calipers. These high-performance upgrades directly replace those plain OE factory rotors with no modification required. Applications for cars are finished with a clear zinc plating for exceptional corrosion resistance.
-StopTech Cross Drilled and Slotted Rotors
- SportStop one-piece direct replacement rotors fit stock calipers. Drilling or slotting helps wipe away the debris that forms between the pad and the disc, adds more bite, and can help the rear brakes to match the aesthetics of a front big brake kit. The rotor finish helps prevent glazing of the pads and improves wet and dry braking performance. Most StopTech rotors have a durable black coating on the non-swept areas of the rotor to prevent unsightly corrosion.
Brake Pads:
-OEM
- Standard Pads both front and rear.
-Project Mu Type NS
- Project Mu NS street pads are developed specifically for street use. Guaranteed to outperform OEM pads, Project Mu NS street pads are reliable in any weather or road conditions. NS street pads give outstanding initial stopping power that is of prime importance on the street. Made from an Asbestos-free brake compound, NS street pads also have very minimal dust and very low squeal properties.
-Project Mu B-Force
- Project Mu B-Force Sports Pad is designed to improve overall braking performance of any street vehicle. The B-Force brake pad is developed for street and light track use where initial stopping power and resistance to fade is of prime importance. In addition to reducing brake dust and squeal, these long-lasting pads help keep rotor wear to minimum.
This kit fits the following models:
-2007-2008 G35 Sedan

Well I was telling Rick that I was interested in the kit CZP has on their thread for $1944 with the stoptech rotors, ss lines, front adapters, and motul fluid. He said i can get it for low $1900's before tax. I'll give him a call later and find out exactly what comes with his kit so I can compare better. I'd prefer buying from riverside since I atleast know Rick and Tony personally, plus they're local 
.
Thanks for all the info, Cal!
