nissan brakes

[mdmccour]

Hey guys, just totaled my 350z track last week, in the process of stripping it down now. I have plans to fly down to florida next week and purchase this fellas third gen rx7, basically i was wondering if anyone knew whether the factory nissan brembo clipers will fit on an rx7? or how much custom work it would take to stuff them on....

I would assume they would fit with custom brackets.

Yeah should be custom brackets, and different sized brake lines. Many s14 owners do the same with the nissan brembos.

I looked around online for a while searching for an answer and never found anyone that had used the 350Z Brembos on an FD. I did read about some FC drivers fabbing brackets and using the Brembos from the STi.

Depending on what brake setup the FD you're looking at has you may just want to sell the Brembo setup from your Z and apply the money to improving what's already on the FD.

Ya thats what im startin to think, I have searched all over and called up a few shops and nobodys ever heard of it being done, seems that the cost outweighs the benfit. Any ideas on what brand is the best, cant afford the Project Mu's or brembos but the Ksport's seem promising...

[BusyBadger]

There's also Stoptech and Rotora. Mu's are pricey. Which means you'll want to skip over an Endless setup too. When I put on new pads last year I picked up a set of ET700's from Racing Brake. I added some braided lines when I was down there and will probably put on new rotors this spring/summer. I bet they've got something for you too.
