No. It's a different bolt pattern. Why not Just get the 370Z Akebono 14" Big Brake Kit

Well in that case, I am sure you could make a bracket that would work then.

i think the rear will bolt right up . since the stock rear akebonos bolted right up to the 350z.

I have a StopTech front/rear kit for my 350Z and called StopTech to see if it would fit on the 370Z. They told me its a direct bolt on for the Base/Non Sport Model and for the Sport Model I would need new brackets and rotor hats.

I am confused.. See if you can follow me.
The Akebonos on the Sport 370z are a direct bolt on for the non-sport 370z.

The akebonos need a different bracket to be installed on a 350z.

If the akebonos Do not need a bracket to install on the Non-sport 370z, this would mean that the 350z brake kit will not fit.

anyone else follow what I am saying? If I dont make sense, correct me.. as this would be cost effective for me to possibly buy a 350z brake kit for my 370z non sport.

370/g37 or any new nissan/infiniti akebonos will need a bracket to work on the 350/g35 setup. this has been proven

^ that is not what i am asking... i am asking if non-sport 370z brake mount points are
the same as 350z brake mount points (which are identical from '03-'08). for that we'd
need a 370z non-sport owner to confirm...

The uprights on the 370Z Sport and 370Z non-Sport are the same as far as brake mounting points go. The 350Z is different in the front.

The OP didn't say which BBK he was looking at, but as far as AP Racing goes:

Moving the front 6-piston 350Z kit over to the 370Z will require new hats, brackets and brake lines.

The rear 4-piston 350Z kit is a direct bolt-on to the 370Z IF the caliper brackets were made after September 2007. Earlier brackets will need some light milling or heavy grinding due to a clearance issue. All other components are interchangeable.

To get big brakes for a 370Z I recommend that you begin with a 370Z. Sure go ahead. Call me crazy.
