Off of a 350Z track edition...I know the front calipers bolt on once the spindle is reamed thanks to this awesome thread
http://www.zilvia.net/f/tech-talk/122707-s14-350z-track-edition-brakes.html
And that the STi calipers bolt up to the rear with the GT-R rotor using the Z ebrake...well, I'm getting the whole set of Z brembos with rotors for $1000 and can't see how using a caliper that uses smaller pistons on a larger rotor would be an upgrade for the rear(STi caliper/GT-R rotor)...The Z32 Nissan rear calipers are 38mm piston and the R34 brembos are 40mm piston...
I've read that the R34 brembo and Z33 brembos are the same rear caliper just have different mounting points...
I'm curious if I can use the Z33 rear caliper once I make a bracket to mount it to the rear spindle with the Z33 rear rotor and Z32 ebrake...if no one knows off the top of their head, the next best thing would be to point me to the place where I could find the maximum / minimum inside for the Z33 rear rotor and e-brake set up..some one came up with the info for the diameter of the Z32 ebrake so it would just need to fit inside the Z33 rear rotors since the Z33 uses the same drum over hub type of ebrake as the Z32...
I know this thread is worthless with out pics but I promise that the brembo brakes on my car will be probably the least coolest thing about it..
Big love..D
