06 brake system with 03 touring wheels
Greetings from New York,
I just picked up a one owner Zed up in Maine(Everything is stock with no mods). Love the Z so far. So I decided to join this forum to meet other Z owners & get more knowledge for our Z33.
Just picked up a full set of brake system today from a guy who has a 06 non brembo. Only knowing front caliper has 2 pistons each, rear remains the same with 1 piston. and bigger rotors over all.
Now I think I may have clearance issue with my 03 touring wheels.
Has anybody done a similar brake swap before? Will I have issue with clearance?

All 350z wheels work with all 350z brakes.

Just a follow up after the installation.
After realizing i have installed rear calipers in reverse, brake system was not bleed out completely. Thought this note is good for maybe someone who might be doing the same set up in the future. And parts were easy to find and within good budget.
Now the car has a lot more braking power compare to stock! and the wheel clearance was not an issue.
