300ZX Brakes
 
is there a way of telling the difference between the 26mm and 30mm brake calipers?

Yes. It's called a ruler.

Speaking of which, does anyone know if Z32 Brakes will bolt up on a Z33 ?

I would consider that a downgrade, but why not? You can make adaptor plates and make it fit.

Fronts bolt right up. You will need the hardware though, the Z33 uses a 14mm hole in the spindle vs. 12mm for the Z32.

Would it be a downgrade from non brembo Z33?

The stock 350z/g35 brakes use a larger rotor than the z32 and have a bigger caliper than the q45. So yes it would would a downgrade.

So let me get this straight... the 26mm's and the 30mm's CAN or CAN NOT use the same pads?

Internet vendors lack of information made me wonder.

spoolandslide 02-20-2009 04:57 PM

^^ Can I get anyone to confirm this for me please before I make an order and waste my money?

Same pads, only difference is thickness of rotor. I'm running them now on my car.

why would you want 2 put z32 calipers on a z33?

They weigh less. The Z33 is a dual piston sliding caliper, made of iron. It's a really big, heavy version of an Schassis front caliper. Which means the sliding pins can seize up too.
