BTW ... I'm on my way tomorrow to pull the spare out of a totalled G37S. Anybody interested in the calipers and rotors if they are still on there?

It clears the G37 BBK, so it probably clears other BBKs as well.

They are 18" instead of the 17" the late models sedans carry. I'm hoping they also have the right pad spacing to clear my BBK. I assume they should since it was designed to clear the Akebono BBK. Even if not, I need the 18" spare (w/spacer?).

Sorry guys, it ended up being a complete waste of time. It was an 08 sedan. Most of it was parted out. The car was seriously FUBAR. I didn't even recognize it as a sedan I saw the engine cover on the ground. Looked like the car was in a combination front/rear collision. BTW ... the light colored headliner really highlights the dried blood well (sorry for the graphic description).


And now .. back on topic...

Actually, I'm guessing they do because the spare in the G37S is an 18". The spare in the non-sport G37 is 17" though. I think B L U E S T A T E is closest to trying out some stockers once he gets the brakes on his car.

Only if you can help me out on that since I don't have the stockers with me at the moment.

You might want to ask Tony directly. Shoot a PM.... or better yet, just call him.

Update

I called Tony today to check on the status. He told me "most" of the parts are in, but the small/little things that were put in backorder aren't. So I guess this means no bbk until next week.

You may want to consider SS brake lines while your swapping everything out.
