I have developed rear brake cooling for the 350z/g35 platform. Many of you have used my front brake cooling kit to great success.

The rears in my car now run hotter than the front because of the front cooling kit.

This fits to the factory mounting points. You jsut take off the plastic cover and pop these on. Couple of minutes a side. Couldn't be easier.

I have my aerodynamicist working on thru ANSYS CFD now to ensure we are getting pressure where we need it. Then I'll be doing relax world highway braking tests to ensure it's working properly. Same things I did with the front kit.

Anyways, this took quite a bit of work to get right. It points right at the factory rotor inlet. I have 370z rotors on my car but will be replacing with 2 piece so that I can draw air from the duct as well. Any factory brake package and you will be set. Should save a lot of brake pad wear on track and let you run less aggressive pads so you don't have to swap out after every track day.

 

Very cool, what's the ground clearance with full weight on the wheels? I think that would be my biggest concern with this design approach. I have a set of your fronts and I like em!

That was first thought too as the pic of the inlet looked low. But looking at it again, it looks like the bottom surface isn't any lower than the bottom of the pumpkin bottom . Only concern might be under suspension compression.

Very trick piece. Nice job.

 

I quickly realized this was going to be an issue so I revised it.

Now it shouldn't be an issue

 

I am waiting for it to get run through CFD after this last revision. If spring ever comes I will take it out to highway and test the rotor temp difference from side to side.

My test for the fronts was 7 stops from 90 to 40mph back to back and then a cruise for 20 seconds. Then I hop out and laser the rotor temps.

Then I go the opposite way and do it again to make up for any possible cross wind.
