Upgraded front brakes 300 zx calipers.

[marc3]

BTW the Mk4 TT 17 inch wheels wil not clear the front calipers from the nissan you wil have to take some material of the calipers

You can also use an spacer

really??
well, i didn't think this would make a difference, but i have 1998 mk4 tt wheels, which toyota did some extra machining inside to make them lighter. supracentral has confirmed this in another thread.
because i just placed my discc and caliper and pads in the wheel and everything clears just fine. in the front ,where the word nissan is written,it comes close , but thats it!!

You are right they come close to the nissan letters

Now i remember when i test fit i did not have the rotors thats why the rims did not clear the calipers but the rotor its self is like an spacer so the ttrims does clear the nissan calipers

Stupid me :sarcasm:

BTW you can also use brembo calipers with those brackets

off of what car?i took a measurement of a set of 350z brembo and the bolt spacing was different.sti or evo maybe?

^ Thanks! I was going to ask the same thing!!!

 

[Supra469]

So where are we on these brackets? Anyone gonna fab them up. Thanks.

 

[Supra7MG]

I can't be sure on the possibility but I have heard reference to Evo calipers several times.
It is certainly worth looking into.

i worked on a evo last week but couldn't get under it to measure.i wish i had a jack available at the time.

I know a local EVO crazy, who took off his Brembo's to drop down to the drag Wilwoods. I'll see if I can get him to give me some caliper mounting dimensions before he sells them.

The nissan skyline R33 GTR brembos has the same bolt pattern as the 300 zx calipers

You can Just bolt the brembos on the nighpager brackets and use 350Z track rotors

Brembos from an nissan skyline R33 GTR they must be from an GTR

Calipers from an nissan R33 GTST would fit to because they also have the sam bolt patern

So with the Nighpager brackets using the 350Z track Rotors

You can use 3 calipers

Nissan 300 ZX calipers (cheaper)

Nissan Skyline R33 GTST

Nissan SKyline R33 GTR brembos

 

[BigSupe]

Will the r32 gtr calipers fit?

Nice nice. Keep up posted on the progress of this. Thanks.

 

[Supra469]

Anyone going forward with this still???????????

Im still looking into it to see if its worth it for me to make them.

 

[twinturbozs]

How about using Evo calipers instead? They can be readily found for $500-800 for the fronts and rear.

I would imagine the research couldnt be much more with a man of your skills.

 

[Rennat]

or just get ARZ front kit for 1195. for the complete bolt on package.

unless your gonna get some killer deal on the calipers, pads, rotors, and brackets... i would just go ARZ. they'll probably outlive your car. haha

 

[wesbeech]

Im looking it to geting them made for about 150.00 a set. Everything would be the same except the over all thickness of the bracket but all the spacing will be the same. How many people would be intrested?
