Vstar, you have all the info! Thank you very much!! So this is kind of like a factory upgrade. Are there any larger calipers that can be fitted to the Pathfinder?VStar650CL wrote: ↑Tue Aug 30, 2022 12:15 pm1999 was a split year. Up to s/n 350000 they had the 283mm front rotors, 350001+ had 300mm front rotors.
Excellent! Thanks for the info! I appreciate the OEM part numbers.VStar650CL wrote: ↑Tue Aug 30, 2022 12:24 pmThe earlier ones should be a 40206-1W200, the later ones -1W600. The Raybestos equivalent for the earlier model shows up as 96615R (standard) or 96615FZN (coated).
What vehicle is that caliper from? Being that the 99-04 are all the same, wouldnt a 00-04 OEM upgrade work on this truck?VStar650CL wrote: ↑Wed Aug 31, 2022 8:23 amThey only show one knuckle for the '99's, so I'd assume you could use the 300mm rotors and get -1W600 caliper assemblies. They should bolt up.
So to upgrade to these rotors, Ill need a new bracket as well as caliper. Right?VStar650CL wrote: ↑Wed Aug 31, 2022 9:48 amYep. If your truck has the 283mm's then it has '98 brakes.

I was just wondering if a 15" wheel diameter would be an issue with this larger brake setup. I have the larger rotors and my 16" wheels have about 1/2" of clearance between the wheel ID and the outer surface of the caliper assembly. I'm thinking a 15" wheel would be kissing the caliper assembly, if the smaller wheel would even fit over it.VStar650CL wrote: ↑Fri Sep 02, 2022 3:19 pmYes. Nissan sells the caliper frame as an assembly along with the caliper and screws, or you can buy the caliper frame by itself (or raid the JY).
That’s a good point! I’m running Qx4 17s.mdmellott wrote: ↑Fri Sep 02, 2022 5:42 pmPATHFINDER99NI wrote: ↑Thu Sep 01, 2022 10:55 am

PF99NI, Do you have the stock 15" wheels or 16" wheels?
