I've waited for 2 days already, and nobody has been willing to help in the forum my problem thread is in. I know the vert owners are a different bunch and I'm sure I'll have an answer to my problem right away... click here to see thread please: zer...grade

Thanks in advance for the help.

I don't know for sure about the q45 rears, but I don't think they bolt up... As far as any thing else... I don't know that there's quite as much compatibility with the rear breaks on the Nissan cars like there are for the fronts... If you can't get an answer in the suspension section, you might have to go with the trial and error method at the U-pick yard.

Stop hitting the brakes so hard lol.

See the last post in this thread. zerothread?id=363607

Here's a solution for keeping the rear ebrake. zerothread?id=246017

Let us know how it goes. I'll be doing a brake upgrade soon myself. I have a set of Q calipers and a set of Z calipers and I'm trying to decide which ones to go with. If you can get the full set of Q calipers to work easily.. I'll probably go that direction just to make it easier and to avoid clearance problems from the Z brakes.

I've yet to hear that the stock BMC can't handle a Q45 brake upgrade.

Thanks! I've got a front set of Q45 brakes on the way and did not know that I should use the S13 caliper mounting bolts.
