I have everything... other than 2 piece rotors for Ake's...

I'm in!

(couldn't find this thread - was looking in G35 brakes )... I think more people that have upgraded to Akebonos on G35 would be interested than actual G37 owners (I could be wrong )

Hmmmm. This is the G35 brakes section. You must have been in the 1st Gen G35 section.

One more bump. Last day to sign up for the GB at the deepest discount. FYI... They don't require any deposit, so if you are thinking of getting these you should sign up now.

Update on the RacingBrake 2-Pc rear rotors!

Just went in for the test fit last week and everything looks good.. they only need to make a slight modification to the seating surface for the internal parking brake, otherwise fitment looks perfect, so production should start soon.

FYI... they used 6061 billet aluminum for the "hat" part of the rotor assembly to help save additional weight. This helped these rotors come in at 4lbs lighter than the factory rotors per side. While not as great of a weight savings as the fronts, that's still a huge weight savings, especially considering that's both unsprung weight and rotating mass. Here are a couple of pics of the rotors on the scale:




They are hoping to have the first preproduction units ready to install on my car before the end of the month, so I will keep you guys updated.
