I have heard of people doing it, but I have yet to see it done. I would be interested in seeing the track brembo's on a s13. I have the R33 calipers on mine and would like to upgrade to the brembo set-up.

Bump for more info!

I know SPL had made an adapter to kick out 300z calipers to use the 350z rotors.. this was a front setup.. I dont see it on thier web page anymore though..... CONFUSED

I had these parts to be installed on an S13 vert I had for a few months, then sold. Maybe, Repo Man can weigh in, as I "think" he might of installed all these parts.

the hubs I don't believe will fit. From what I understand 350z rotors and brembos will fit, but you need to drill out you caliper mounting holes to accommodate the larger bolts.

you can also get spec v brembos that are a bolt on affair.

I have Z33 track rotors on mine with Z32 calipers. The calipers do not sweep the entire contact area on the rotor, however you still get the greater mechanical advantage with the larger diameter rotor. Plus, they're pretty damn hard to heat up to the point that they fade.

I do have to use the now-discontinued SPL brackets to relocate the calipers, but they are simple and a bolt-on type deal.

Bottom line is that the car stops pretty damn well.

I have the identical setup on Project Vert... G35 Brembos (slotted) with Z32 30mm calipers and Ferodo 2500 DS pads - Hellacious stopping pawer, especially with those fatass sticky front tires.
