No problem with spacers. They are hub centric, so get them.

I plan to do the 350z track rotor conversion soon so i'm just listening in.

Are you guys all upgrading the rears as well to a Z32 set up or are they still stock???

I still have the stock setup for now. But I plan on upgrading the rear rotors to a larger size and using a bracket system to move the caliper farther out from the hub. I think phase2motortrend has a kit on there you can look at, here's a link.... http://www.phase2motortrend.com/stkrebrstupk.html

I bought them from Rinkya.com. I may be willing to sell them actually. Email me and I'll discuss it further with you if you are serious about buying them.

I have z32 rears as well along with slightly oversized vert brake booster, 16/17 z32 BMC and Valvoline synthetic fuild.

I have actually run the Z32 rotors as well as the 350Z rotor/adapters with both the 1" and the 1 1/16" master cylinder on a fresh stock booster.

My preference of choice is the Z32 setup with the 1" master cylinder.

I noticed no difference in braking from the Z32 to the 350z package. keep in mind this is with 95% street driving and the random late night blasts out in the country. I ran the 350Z setup for almost a year. I am now back to the Z32 with drilled rotors and Axxis pads on the larger (17/16) master cylinder.

Well, 350z setup looks better though. This is regular z32 setup.

I'm in the process of collecting my parts to do the 350Z track rotor conversion but i can't find the caliper adapter brackets anywhere. As far as i can tell SPL no longer makes them and either JSK has stopped too or their site is down.

I've seen these on ebay but i don't want any ebay junk on my car. Where can i order a quality set of these adapters for my brake conversion???

Those look to be the same ones being sold on ebay, at least the pic used is the exact same.

No problems at all with brakes and spacers. I'm a very picky guy and I have no complaints at all. I wish I had experience with z32 rotors and moved on to 350z rotors, so I can tell the difference.

30mm aluminum or iron calipers and 17 inch wheels are REQUIRED.

Where is RB20DETTod? I haven't seen him forever. I've wanted to have it ever since I saw his car. He has SPL brackets.
