Hey guys, i cant find the thread right now and i cant remember which forum it was on but a guy put on the brake kit of a G35. Just curious if the G35 brembos are a direct fit or need any modding. Thanks and sorry again if this is a repost

To get the fronts to fit, you will need a custom mount bracket made to fit the calipers. Because the brembo rotors are not much larger than the stock altima, it would be difficult to make these brackets with strength integrity. There would not be much material to work with. But I am sure it can be done by a good machine shop. I suspect it might be expensive though. I believe the rears would be a direct bolt on.

Huh...I always thought it was just plug and play except with larger wheels. Be prepared OP because converting isn't cheap :frown:

The G37 or 370 with sport Akebono brakes are direct bolt on, but the g35 brembo brakes, only the rears are bolt on. I someone really wanted to be different, and sport all brembo brakes, the easiest way would be to get rear g35 brembo brakes and g37 sport direct replacement brembo calipers with g37 sport front rotors. the colors would be off, the g37 brembo calipers only come in red, black, silver and yellow. I believe the g35 calipers came in a goldish color. You could always powdercoat though. If money is no object, just get the brembo rear grand turismo bbk for the g37.
